Trying to install Plugins.

Legacy 2nd gen Apple TV
1

I’ve just jailbroken my AppleTV2 using seas0n pass, and am trying to install plugins such as nitoTV, XBMC, Plex etc.

I’m on a windows PC, and have downloaded “Putty” for SSH commands.

I type root@My_ATV_IP_Adress and enter the password alpine. All seems to be going well. But whenever I try to install/update anything I get the following error:

E: Malformed line 1 in source list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/awkardtv.list (dist)

E: The list of sources could not be read.

What am I doing wrong? For the likes of Plex/XBMC do I need them installed on my computer first?

Anyone? :frowning:

Someone on the XBMC forum said:

/etc/apt/sources.list.d/awkardtv.list is borked. you need to fix it.

Eh?! That doesn’t really help.

c/p        Installation on the Apple TV only requires a few quick commands over SSH:

$ ssh root@

root@’s password: ”enter your password here, it should be “alpine” if you havent changed it”

$ echo “deb http://mirrors.xbmc.org/apt/atv2 ./” > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xbmc.list

$ apt-get update

$ apt-get install org.xbmc.xbmc-atv

Yea. Ended up restoring and re-jailbreaking, and ran it again. All works fine now :slight_smile:
