- Open up your 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:
ssh [email protected]
- EXAMPLE:
ssh [email protected]
- EXAMPLE:
- You will be asked for a password: default password is alpine
- Continue to enter the following commands:
apt-get install wget
wget -O- http://apt.awkwardtv.org/awkwardtv.pub | apt-key add -
echo "deb http://apt.awkwardtv.org/ stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awkwardtv.list
- We need to download two files and install them manually from an existing mirror server.
- Find a local mirror for your location from Mirror list.
- copy the URL for that mirror
- For the first file, the download command will be
wget MIRROR_URL+apt/atv2/deb/org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock_1.0-5_iphoneos-arm.deb
- For the second file, the download command will be
wget MIRROR_URL+test-builds/darwin/atv2/xbmc-20131201-8eed85b-Frodo-atv2.deb
- Now we install the files by typing in these two lines, in order, followed by enter/return:
dpkg -i org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock_1.0-5_iphoneos-arm.deb
dpkg -i xbmc-20131201-8eed85b-Frodo-atv2.deb
- Now we finish off the normal install process by entering the following commands, in order, followed by return/enter
mkdir -p /Applications/AppleTV.app/Appliances
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2
mkdir -p /Applications/XBMC.frappliance
