The following is a collection of user frequently asked questions regarding upgrade from [[Amahi 7]] to [[Amahi 8]]. Feel free to update as needed.
*I have my system hard drive set up with the partitions for the boot/root/home/swap as one part, and my /var/hda/files taking up the rest of the drive space. Then I have three other drives installed (one internal, and two USB connected). My question is, when When I do the installation, will it wipe the data off of my /var/hda/files, or can I select not to format that partition? (Custom install, have it format all partitions except that one)<br /><br />'''ANSWER:''' This may be possible, but untested. We cannot provide support as it deviates from our recommended install guidance.<br /><br />
*Do I need to disconnect the other drives, or will I be able to specify just that it format the partitions on the main (system) drive?<br /><br />'''ANSWER:''' You may be able to leave them connected, but this is untested. We '''strongly''' recommend you disconnect them.<br /><br />
*Will I be able to install any desktop afterwards? I ask this, because I use TeamViewer to manage my computers, and it requires a desktop to work.<br /><br />'''ANSWER:''' Support with Gnome or any other desktop was discontinued in Amahi 7 and will not be supported in Amahi 8 or future versions.<br /><br />
