I'm trying for a dual boot setup.  My steps:
* Create atv-bootloader USB drive
* Add a ext3 partition to the atv-bootloader USB drive (/dev/sdb2),
use it to backup the Recovery partition, as per documented backup
procedure.  Copy this backup to my computer.
* Use parted to shrink atv /dev/sda4 (Media) to about 14GB, create /
dev/sda5 for linux.
* Build a bootable USB install disk from Mythbuntu 9.04 live CD iso
using USB Startup Disk Creator in ubuntu 9.04.
* Copy these files to my atv-bootloader USB drive (/dev/sdb2)
* Boot AppleTV to the atv-bootloader, telnet in, kick start mythbuntu
with kexec, and install Mythbuntu as per documented procedure to /dev/
sda5.
Reboot AppleTV to native OS, go through factory restore process.
Reboot AppleTV to native OS, test working.  Go to Settings>About,
capacity says 13.76.
Reboot AppleTV with atv-bootloader, with  <string>atv-boot=auto
video=vesafb</string>
It boots to the stick, but it doesn't find/boot my Mythbuntu
installation.  It's pretty hard to see whats going on as it's all off
the left of the screen, and I don't know what it should look like
anyway.

Any ideas how to troubleshoot/fix this?  Can I use atv-boot=manual and
if so, how?
