Alternative install method: iFile

Get iFile from Cydia.

Download the .deb file on your computer and upload it to iFile using the web browser interface.

In iFile tap on the deb file and select "install".

You can also do this all within the iPad if you use an application that can download several file types (the Native Safari sometimes is able to do this, but not always. I think it's a mirror thing..). I like using iCab to download new nightly builds, then iCab sends it to iFile and then install. All on the device itself. Just don't forget to delete the left over .deb files (they've not needed after installation)

You likely don't have the apt command on your iPad. Go to Cydia and search for AptBackup. Install that. That will install the apt command so you can use it. Once that is installed, run:

apt-get install wget

wget "URL of nightly build"

dpkg -i "File Name of nightly build"

rm "File Name of nightly build"

(each without the quotes)

Actually I think you just need "APT 0.7 Strict" which AptBackup probably lists as a dependancy. However, I thought "APT 0.7 Strict" was a dependency of Cydia itself... I could be wrong, though.

Apt 0.7 was not present on my iPad2 just from the Cydia install. I had to install it when I put on XBMC as well. And yes, 0.7 Strict is technically all you need. But I thought AptBackup would be easier to find and install. Plus, AptBackup is actually a good program to have for managing applications for backup/restoring/copying saved games to other iOS devices.
