Ok the very good news first. Netkas has foudn the problem with none Apple computer and fixed the issue.

The good news, we cleaning up the forum a bit to make you all feel more welcome, this delays writing my article on AppleTV OS a bit but will come up today, promised :-)

how long before some one puts up a torrent that is just a working disk image for all other macs (either with the ATVOS on boot or as a replacment for finder)

if i could get the damn thing working i would!

MacBook CD, it doesn't work.
Clean install of OSX, replacing the finder.app, and the Finder.app/MacOS/Finder
adding the two new frameworks.
Nothing appends, I see only the old finder, realy buggy.
I've got, in the console, a findercrash.log

Any ideas? (I follow the HowTo Step provided by appletvhacks.net)
I found my finder on the green devil

can you post system.log from /var/logs here?

This I had with either files with broken perms (needed to copy them of my ATV again) or after borkerizing my video driver for INTeL GMA950 as system ran in vesa mode.

Ok, here is my system.log.
It repeat this all the time

OK guys ! 100% success !

I can start Front Row with the Apple remote and i can even Quit it without any additional App.

I still can use my standard os x finder.

Will write a full howto.

I put some infos in external threads to make them easier to browse for other people, feel fre to use these or make new threads on this topic. All stuffed to gether makes it really hard to read up for newcomer

Thank you!

I can't wait to know how you manage to quit back row ! (by the way, when you call it front row it confuses me ... i guess it is officially called back row)

Thx anyway by advance for your research !
