davilla Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 http://atvusb-creator.googlecode.com/files...-win-1.0.b8.zip This is an interim release until we get atvusb-creator sync'ed again. download and unzip. enclosed are a two batch files with associated disk images that are 7-zipped and a set of tools. These batch file can be used to create AppleTV patchstick disk images. The minimum USB flash drive supported is 256MB. USB flash drives can be restored back to full size using the HP USB Disk Storage Format Tool from here -> http://files.extremeoverclocking.com/file.php?f=197 There are two disk image versions: mk-atv-xbmc.bat will create a disk image that will install 1) bintuils 2) SoftwareMenu-0.71 3) XBMCLauncher-0.6 Use this version if you already have ssh on your AppleTV that was installed by a previous patchstick. mk-atv-xbmc-ssh.bat will create a disk image that will install 1) ssh (dropbear) 2) bintuils 3) SoftwareMenu-0.71 4) XBMCLauncher-0.6 SoftwareMenu can be used to install other AppleTV Plugins. XBMCLauncher is used to install and launch either XBMC or Boxee. These batch files should be run from a command prompt. Start -> Run -> cmd Run either batch file and it will download, extract and inject boot.efi into the disk image. Everything will be automatically done so you don't need to manually extract or download anything. Once the disk image is created, use "USB Image Tool" to do the actual copy to USB flash drive. Run "USB Image Tool", switch from "Volume Mode" to "Device Mode". Select your USB flash drive then select the disk image using the "Restore" button. This tool does work in Vista but will need to be run as administrator. To do this right-click on "USB Image Tool.exe" then select "run as administrator". Good Luck, Issues can be posted here; http://code.google.com/p/atvusb-creator/issues/list Please be complete in describing any problems as we cannot see what has been done. Enjoy and please be carefull selecting the desired USB flash drive Scott "Mr AppleTV" Davilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
