Hi,
I followed the instructions described in
http://code.google.com/p/atv-bootloader/wiki/LinuxUSBPenBoot
to create a bootable usb drive. I extracted boot.efi from Apple update
as explained in
http://code.google.com/p/atv-bootloader/wiki/BootEFIExtraction.
However, when I finally try to boot the device, it does not use the
USB drive at all. The lights on the USB drive lights and for a second
or two it seems that is being read, however the Apple TV continues to
boot and presents me a menu with three options:
1. Restart the device
2. Run diagnostics
3. Factory settings
I tried each one of those and the results are the same, the Apple TV
does not use the usb drive. Option 1 continues the normal boot
sequence, Option 2 runs some diagnostics and says that everything is
ok and Option 3 restores the Apple TV to the factory settings.
I'm using a first generation Apple TV, with a 32GB Kingston USB
pendrive.
I can run any tests that you ask me to run, I just need some guidance
since this is the first time that I'm playing with an Apple TV.
Thanks in advance
Regards
