However, the "first installing the official cydia version" part is what is confusing me. How do i go about installing that before running the code outlined below it? or do i ONLY run the code portion of that post?
Thanks for all your hard work!
Installation via ssh (first installing the official cydia version which installs all dependencys and the update with the version from this thread):
Code:
apt-get update
mkdir -p /Applications/AppleTV.app/Appliances
apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2
mkdir -p /Applications/XBMC.frappliance
wget http://dl.dropbox.com/u/14341410/org.xbm...os-arm.deb
dpkg -i org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_11.0-2_iphoneos-arm.deb
rm org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2_11.0-2_iphoneos-arm.deb

That's the downside to the teathered jailbreak, that every time it powers down it needs a computer to finish booting up. However, with the ATV2 you can just leave it on, so unless it has a major crash (and does a total reboot) then it shouldn't be an issue.

Apple-TV:~ root# apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2 is already the newest version.
You might want to run `apt-get -f install' to correct these:
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
org.xbmc.xbmc-atv2: Depends: org.xbmc.xbmc-seatbeltunlock but it is not going to be installed
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt-get -f install' with no packages (or specify a solution).
I'm completely ignorant to this part of it, and would be extremely grateful for any insight as to what I might be doing wrong or what I need to change in order to help everything go smooth. Everything seemed to go smooth until that line.
Thanks in advance for any assistance the helpful folks here on the forum could provide!
