{{big|So http://mirrors.xbmc.org is down and you want to install XBMC on your Apple TV 2? Here are the manual install instructions for ATV2s that have software version 5.0 or higher. This will be removed once http://mirrors.xbmc.org is back up.}}
;From scratch, for ATV software version 5.0 or higher
# Open up your [[XBMC for iOS specific FAQ#SSH|terminal/ssh application]] and enter the following command to log in to your ATV2. Note, you need to replace "YOUR.ATV2.IP.ADDRESS" with the IP address of the Apple TV:
#: <pre>ssh [email protected]</pre>
#:: '''EXAMPLE:''' <code>ssh [email protected]</code>
# You will be asked for a password: ''default password is '''alpine'''''
# Continue to enter the following commands:
#: <pre>apt-get install wget</pre>
#: <pre>wget -O- <nowiki>http://apt.awkwardtv.org/awkwardtv.pub</nowiki> | apt-key add -</pre>
#: <pre>echo "deb <nowiki>http://apt.awkwardtv.org/ stable main" ></nowiki> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awkwardtv.list</pre>
#: <pre>apt-get update</pre>
#We need to download two files and install them manually from an existing mirror server.
## Find a local mirror for your location from the '''[[mirror list]]'''.
## copy the URL for that mirror
## For the first file, the download command will be <code>wget ''MIRROR_URL+''apt/atv2/deb/org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock_1.0-5_iphoneos-arm.deb</code>
##::'''EXAMPLE:''' <code>wget http://fake-domain.name.here/xbmc/apt/atv2/deb/org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock_1.0-5_iphoneos-arm.deb</code>
## For the second file, the download command will be <code>wget ''MIRROR_URL+''test-builds/darwin/atv2/xbmc-20131201-8eed85b-Frodo-atv2.deb</code>
##::'''EXAMPLE:''' <code>wget http://fake-domain.name.here/xbmc/atv2/xbmc-20131201-8eed85b-Frodo-atv2.deb</code>
## Now we install the files by typing in these two lines, in order, followed by enter/return:
##:<pre>dpkg -i org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock_1.0-5_iphoneos-arm.deb</pre>
##:<pre>dpkg -i xbmc-20131201-8eed85b-Frodo-atv2.deb</pre>
# Now we finish off the normal install process by entering the following commands, in order, followed by return/enter
#: <pre>mkdir -p /Applications/AppleTV.app/Appliances</pre>
#: <pre>apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2</pre>
