This page should have a small blurb explaining that 4.3 (4.2.1 in ATV) does not work with current-stable XBMC, but rather the daily code which is unstable... maybe a link to that discussion?

This page should be updated to reflect that Seas0nPass isn't the only method, greenpois0n can be used for an untethered jailbreak. http://www.appletvhacks.net/2011/02/16/how-to-jailbreak-apple-tv-2-with-greenpois0n-rc6/
Does the XBMC install document need an introduction? It's a good way to remove background info from the actual install steps but it does lengthen the install doc. Anyone else? ([[User:Jd2157|Jd2157]] 20:02, 12 September 2011 (UTC))

:I wasn't so sure about it myself at first either, but it's probably a good idea since a lot of people will glaze over the FAQ and go straight to install, or be linked directly (note to self, make some kind of navigation bar/box for iOS topics). I don't feel strongly about it either way. -- [[User:Ned Scott|Ned Scott]] 00:14, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
:The jailbreak FAQ has all the necessary jailbreak information. http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?t=99315 [[User:Jd2157|Jd2157]] 01:34, 9 September 2011 (UTC)
 
 
As of the Seas0nPass 0.70 update, the xbmc apt repository is already pre-configured (along with several others) after jailbreaking the ATV2. The only steps necessary to get XBMC running now are:
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2
answering yes to all prompts as necessary.

The instructions are missing few steps. These are documented in the forums, and I am simply copying them here.
 
<nowiki>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
apt-get update</nowiki>
 
 
The following is also missing and should be performed right after apt-get update:
 
<nowiki>apt-get upgrade</nowiki>
 
I'm getting following error:
 
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree     
Reading state information... Done
Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
or been moved out of Incoming.
The following information may help to resolve the situation:
 
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2: Depends: org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock but it is not going to be installed
E: Broken packages
 
any idea why ? I followed everystep ..
 
== Where to go for installation support ==
 
This isn't the right spot for installation issues. They should be discussed in the [http://forum.xbmc.org/forumdisplay.php?f=137 XBMC forums] or the forums of the jailbreak tool you're having issues with.

Introduction: is it needed?

Does the XBMC install document need an introduction? It's a good way to remove background info from the actual install steps but it does lengthen the install doc. Anyone else? (Jd2157 20:02, 12 September 2011 (UTC))
