USB flash drive creator released
The atv-bootloader team have today launched atvusb-creator, which creates USB flash drive based installers that include patchstick, factory restore and various Linux distributions.
This version is comes with ssh, bin tools, and two plugins (XBMC for Mac and Boxee for Mac). That’s right, two full blown OSX applications with their own AppleTV plugin to launch and get updates.
Currently, it is only available to run on OS X, but Linux and Windows versions should be following within the week.

Hey I patched my AppleTV with this program and logged in through SSH. How do I copy files such as other plugins to the AppleTV Hard Drive through SSH. Do you have to enable AFP, and if so how do i enable AFP. Thanks Paul

Must be some sort of 10.5.5 thing that only effect some OSX boxes. I have access to another MacBook and MacPro running 10.5.5 as well as a MacMini that do not wave the crash on launch symptom.
If you could email me (this username @xbmc.org), I can give you a private ftp server location and login. You can also try the b4 test version which is Universal and handles the create using a different method.
I’d like to get a dd image of one of your flash drives that will not boot.
