Patchstick AppleTV Hack
I was really excited to have SSH on the AppleTV…why? No Clue. I am a geek. I use my Logitech remote for my roomba. This is simply something I do. Here is the steps to get the Patchstick working with 1.1 Firmware.
1. Find the patchstick torrent of the original version or create your own. I will not tell you where to find the torrent.
2. Download the AppleTV 1.1 DMG: Click Here!
3. cp /Volumes/OSBoot/usr/standalone/i386/boot.efi /Volumes/Patchstick
4. Place the USB Drive into the AppleTV USB port and yank the power button
5. Press and Hold Volume Down + Menu
6. Kernel boot message will appear and at the bottom you will see SSH and Perian installed
7. Yank the power cable and enjoy
