I have been trying to get the Ubuntu precise kernel booting on the apple tv. I used the initrd and vmlinuz to create the mach_kernel. I had no luck in booting into trying every option to vga that people have tried. I finally downloaded the latest 3.2.17 kernel from kernel.org. I created the kernel configuring it using the i386_defconfig, I only modified the processor type to pentium-m from pentium-pro. This doesnt boot either, I am left with display stuck showing "ATV: Staring Linux...". I was wondering what I need to change in the kernel config to get the kernel to boot directly. I am able to kexec into this kernel without any issues.
