Ive decided to install Crystalbuntu on my ATV1, but I wanted to know if there was a way I could save my plugins or transfer then over to the new install? Thanks!

Click on the link: Userdata (wiki). That will give you the location for each OS. Copy it to a thumb drive or something, then you can restore it to the Crystalbuntu location (I think it's changed for CB 2.0, so I would check http://crystalbuntu.com for the userdata location there). Actually, you should be able to copy the entire parent "XBMC" folder, and that will grab add-ons too, in addition to user-specific files.

Ok, Im really lost. I installed crystalbuntu after I copied the folder from the ATV, and I cant ssh into it or find a file browser on it. Ive tried the usr name/password combos of ATV, atv, xbmc, frontrow, and I cant get it to let me in.
