Q: Trouble updating to Apple TV software v6.0

After downloading and installing Apple TV software v6.0, my tv was showing a lightning cable being plugged into an iTunes icon. However, I don't understand what this is trying to tell me. After a while my tv lost the signal from my Apple TV box and a white light on the front of the Apple TV started flashing. It has been well over an hour and nothing has changed. Anybody have any idea what is happening or what I should do?

iMac, iOS 5.1

Looks like they removed the update. It's not showing on the Update page at Apple.com any more (was there earlier today)
