Limera1n Can Jailbreak the Apple TV

Limera1n Can Jailbreak the Apple TV

Erica Sadun has confirmed that she was able to jailbreak her Apple TV with Limera1n; however, it does not install OpenSSH at this time, so not much can be done with it.

The Limera1n page has updated to indicate that Apple TV jb is "technically supported". I can confirm that I put my ATV2 into DFU mode and was able to "jailbreak" it. But since no AFC services or OpenSSH were installed (let alone APT), there's nothing that really can be done with it at this time.

We'll let you know when the jailbreak is updated to install OpenSSH.

If there is no hard drive, how will one be able to load Boxee or XBMC?

Maybe the internal 8GB memory can be used or even the micro usb can be used to hookup external memory after Jail Break
