'''NOTES:'''
* The only '''officially supported''' install media is Fedora 25 Server.
* Ensure your system meets the [[Requirements|http://docs.amahi.org/requirements.html minimum hardware requirements]] for Amahi before proceeding.
* 32-bit installs '''are not''' available nor supported in Amahi 10.
* '''NOT ALL''' apps in previous Amahi versions are available for Amahi 10. Check the [https://www.amahi.org/apps App Store] before proceeding.
We recommend this method for a quick download and fast installation.
* Download the Fedora 25 Netinstall CD for 64 bit (484MB).** Primary: [https://downloadarchives.fedoraproject.org/pub/archive/fedora/linux/releases/25/Server/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-25-1.3.iso Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-25-1.3.isoNetinstall CD]** Alternate: [https://dlfor 64 bit (484MB).fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/25/Server/x86_64/iso/Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-25-1.3.iso Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-25-1.3.iso]
* Burn the ISO to CD/DVD (or [[USB Install|USB]]), insert the media into your server, and reboot the system.
* These instructions below will guide you through the Fedora 25 Netinstall CD installation with screen shots and commentary. If you are not an advanced Linux user and know what you are doing, recommend you '''DO NOT''' deviate from the guidance. Click '''[Expand<Screenshot>]''' to show a screen shot and '''[Collapse]''' to /hide itthe image.

</div><br></li>
<ul>
<li>The '''INSTALLATION SUMMARY''' screen will appear. It may take a few minutes to finish ''Checking software dependencies''
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-collapsetext="{{int:Screenshot}}" style="width:400px">
[[file:F25CD_SS2A.PNG|600px]]
</div><br></li>
<li>Once complete, next choose ''INSTALLATION DESTINATION''. This is where you will select the disk drive to use.
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-collapsetext="{{int:Screenshot}}" style="width:400px">
[[file:F25CD_SS2B.PNG|600px]]
</div><br></li>
<ul>
<li>Choose the disk drive you want to use for the Fedora installation. If you have more than one disk drive connected, '''DO NOT''' select them at this time. You will notice a ''check mark'' on the disk drive selected. Select ''I will configure partitioning'' and then choose ''Done''.
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-collapsetext="{{int:Screenshot}}" style="width:400px">
[[file:F25CD_SS3A.PNG|600px]]
</div><br></li>
<ul>
<li> You should see the existing partition about half way down the screen.

[[file:F25CD_SS3E.PNG|600px]]
</div><br></li>
<li>The disk drive partition should look similar to this setup. For most users, then default partitioning scheme used will suffice. However, you can manually change it using the hard drive partition scheme documentation as a guide. Once complete, choose ''Done''

<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-collapsetext="{{int:Screenshot}}" style="width:400px">
[[file:F25CD_SS6A.PNG|600px]]
</div><br></li>
<li>You '''MUST''' create the initial user and password (This will be your HDA Login, also called the First Admin User). Ensure you select ''Make this user administrator'' check box. Once complete, choose ''Done''. Note that a weak password may require you to select ''Done'' twice.

Next, we will install Amahi 10 proper on top of Fedora 25.
<ul>
<li>When you reboot you will see a black screen with no graphics and a "localhost login" text prompt. Login into that that console directly with the user and password you created in the Fedora 25 installation. (You can also use SSH to login remotely from a client if you know how)
<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-collapsetext="{{int:Screenshot}}" style="width:400px">
[[file:A10_SS1.PNG|450px]]
</div><br><br>
<li>You need to obtain an install code (denoted YOUR-INSTALL-CODE below) from the [https://www.amahi.org/users Amahi control panel] after configuring a profile for the system you are installing, with '''proper network configuration''' for your network.<br><br>
<li>From text console or using SSH (logged in with the user created in the Fedora 25 installation), become ''root'' for the Amahi installation. When prompted for a password, it's your user password you set in the Fedora 25 install.<br />
<div style="border: 1px solid #A3B1BF; padding: .5em 1em; color: #000; background-color: #E6F2FF; margin: 3px 3px 1em 3px; text-align: left">
</div>
<li>After that, type these three separate commands (one per line) in the console:
<div style="border: 1px solid #A3B1BF; padding: .5em 1em; color: #000; background-color: #E6F2FF; margin: 3px 3px 1em 3px; text-align: left">
<nowiki>rpm -Uvh http://f25.amahi.org/noarch/hda-release-610.90.0-1.noarch.rpm</nowiki>
dnf -y install hda-ctl
hda-install YOUR-INSTALL-CODE
</div>
</ul>
What this does is installs the Amahi F25 repo, gets the mariadb base packages to avoid dependency conflicts, and installs base Amahi packages (that part should install several packages).
* Your server will boot with the static IP you pre-configured in the Amahi control panel
* This is a headless server, therefore it will boot to a text console. There is no desktop user interface.'''Installing the Desktop (e.g. GNOME) interface will break DNS/DHCP and make the HDA as an unsuitable network server''' [[Amahi_8_Troubleshooting#Virtualization_Stack_Breaks_DNS.2FDHCP_Server|(details)]]
* It's strongly recommended you follow the [[transition to Amahi]] HDA guide to get your network fully working properly
* You can verify if the dashboard is available by accessing it from any client using the IP address of your server '''<nowiki>http://IPADDRESS/</nowiki>''' or '''<nowiki>http://hda/</nowiki>''' (in most Windows clients this works even without DNS from your HDA)
