Using Seas0nPass for a 'tethered boot'
Some AppleTV software versions require a tethered boot. This means the
AppleTV must be connected to a computer for a brief moment during
startup.
Note: The AppleTV MUST be disconnected from the computer (for at least a
brief moment) after restoring in iTunes for the tethered boot process
below to work properly.
Step 1: Open Seas0nPass and select the 'Boot Tethered' option.
[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
Step 2: When prompted, connect the AppleTV to your computer via USB.
Wait for the rapid flashing light then connect the power. Once both are
connected hold both the 'MENU' and 'PLAY/PAUSE' buttons for 7 seven
seconds.

Step 3: Seas0n Pass will complete the tethered boot automatically. Once
complete, remove the USB cable and connect the HDMI cable.
Note: Timing is key. Once the you receive the success message shown
below, the USB cable should be removed and HDMI cable connected before
the light on the front of the AppleTV stops flashing. (Don't worry there
is ample to do this, so you don't need Superman speed).
