Hey everyone, would really appreciate any volunteers willing to help with this.. Anyone with a few GB's to spare? The OS is booting fine in initial stages but getting some minor errors which we think is just my hardware. PM me if your interested. Thanks.

2 GB should suffise... (for small part)
Probably needs to be set up as GUID with the same GUIDs as the AppleTV (4 partitions, check the awkward tv wiki for using external HDD... the partition guide should work)

I would like to test this too..
But i got a AMD system. Will this AppleTV kernel work on a AMD system?
And how would one configure all this?
Just dump AppletTV OS on a HDD, replace kernel, add needed kext's and boot it?
Thnx!

Download the image direct from Apple's servers Click Me.

Switch the kernel with the one in the thread that Andy posted and copy over all the default Leopard kexts, obviously using System.kext and IPFirewall.kext from Andy's package. Delete the watchdog kext which is in the extensions folder by default. Apply permissions and attempt to boot.. basically. Have fun!

As for AMD and Intel... haven't a clue. I assume it'll work, as the kernel is based on Andy's kernel sources.

I mounted the disk image, but I am not seeing the watchdog kext. Is there any other info or procedure needed? I'd really like to play with this.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see it. So basically, just copy over the Leo kexts we use and that's it, eh? Sounds simple enough.

can you post a detailed instruction on how to do it?

i've downloaded the dmg from apple site, restored it into a usb flash drive.
copy my leopard kext over osboot kext, copy and replace andy's mach_kernel, system.kext and ipfirewall.kext, deleted watchdog.
install chamoleon EFI. applied permissions...

when i boot it, it shows "error parsing plist fileloading Darwin/x86
then shows" errors encountered while starting up the computer"

So you got it working?
Could you maybe post some videos/pictures if so?
About to try it myself

Edit:

I think i just killed my system...
Thats the second time this week xD
I made a new partition and restored the OSBoot to it.
Then i replaced all extensions, deleted watchdog, and added the AnV Apple TV Kernel.
Then when i tried to boot my system it would only show
boot0, done i believe and then reboot the pc...
I tried to remove the AppleTV partition with a DVD, but now its giving memory allocation errors when booting from the OSX hard disk...
Is it possible to restore Chameleon to the hard disk?
I was using the latest version...
Thnx!
