Can I still patch from a MAC or not?

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Simple question:

Can I patch an ATV 3.x OS with this patchstick creator on a MAC even though
it only says it will create a 2.x patchstick?  - or is the latest stuff all
on the Windows platform.  Thanks!!

That's a yep to it working on a Mac - just realised there were two questions.

Any special steps once patched or just the normal process like I did last time 
(a
year or so ago) ?

I saw some mention of manually updating something once patched and wasnt sure 
if that
is still needed.

Thanks!!

If you're using the Mac version you'll want to update Launcher and Software 
Menu as 
they're a bit out of date. 

Take a look at issue #411

Sorry-  I am not a noob but I guess I need a little info yet.  issue 411 is 
pretty 
long and convoluded...   

Do I select the 3.0.1 DMG when I make the patchstick the first time and then 
boot 
with that patchstick?  

It would basically be nice to have a little step by step process described 
somewhat...   I know you are busy...

Hey,

If you're using 3.0.1 Firmware then yep, use a 3.0.1 FW based patchstick. All 
you 
need to do is update Launcher, which is simple as. After you patchstick, we can 
update your payloads with SSH. Just use this script (got from awkwardtv but 
updated 
to use 3.22 ver of XBMCLauncher).

wget http://atv-xbmc-launcher.googlecode.com/files/Launcher-3.2.2-debug.run
scp Launcher-3.2.2-debug.run frontrow@appletv.local:/Users/frontrow
rm Launcher-3.2.2-debug.run
ssh frontrow@appletv.local
chmod +x Launcher-3.2.2-debug.run ; ./Launcher-3.2.2-debug.run

I am busy, but it's not a problem honestly. Good luck :)

OK so when you say use a 3.0.1 FW based patchstick-  you just mean I need to 
download
the 3.0.1 ATV DMG from somewhere and select that file in the "Choose DMG" field 
of
the patchstick creator... is that right?

Thanks!

Yes sir! aTV 3.01 firmware can be found by going to mesu.apple.com page or the 
awkward tv wiki where the DMG url is listed.
