==Prequisites==* USB Flash Drive (2-4GB minimum depending on the ISO)* [https://getfedora.org/en/workstation/download/ Fedora Media Writer] (supports Windows/Mac/Linux OS)<br />'''DISCLAIMERNOTE:''' Fedora Media Writer must be installed on the client system (no portable version available).==Create USB image=='''NOTE:''' This has worked for someThese instructions are based on a Windows client, but has not been thoroughly tested nor is it a preferred way for install. Support is not provided at this time, so proceed with cautioneasily adaptable to MAC or Linux.
== UNetbootin based instructions* Insert USB flash drive into your computer.* Run Fedora Media Writer:==[[File:Fmw-ss1.png|600px]]:A. Select '''Custom image''':B. Browse to select the ISO file you downloaded:C. Choose '''Write to Disk.''' Please be patient as this may take a while.:D. Once complete, exit and remove the USB flash drive from the computer.
* Setup a ==Install Fedora ==Insert the USB Flash Drive as you normally would using [http://unetbootinflash drive into your server, reboot the system, and follow applicable install instructions to complete the install.sourceforgeThis method may not work well with UEFI firmware based hardware.net/ UNetbootin See [[Install_troubleshooting|Install Troubleshooting]] for details.
* When UNetbootin has completed, exit but do not select the reboot option. Next copy the [[Express CD|Express CD ISO]] to the root of the USB Flash Drive. * Change the file syslinux.cfg to read as follows default vesamenu.c32 prompt 0 menu title UNetbootin timeout 100 label unetbootindefault menu label Default kernel /isolinux/vmlinuz append initrd=/isolinux/initrd.img ks=hd:sda1:/advanced.cfg quiet label ubnentry0 menu label ^Expert install for Amahi headless - Graphic installer kernel /isolinux/vmlinuz append initrd=/isolinux/initrd.img ks=hd:sda1:/advanced.cfg quiet * Most likely '''hdNOTE:sda1''' will be what your USB Flash Drive is assigned (instructions assume your USB Flash Drive is '''sda1''' and the hard drive you're installing to is''' sdb1'''). * Boot up your target PC from the USB Flash Drive and choose Expert Install or let it time out - you'll get to the same place either way. * Eventually the installer will complain Some BIOS have function keys that it can't find the Install Disc, press '''[tab]''' until '''[Back]''' is highlighted and press '''[enter]'''. * When asked type of Installation Method, navigate to Hard Drive press '''[enter]''' * When asked partition where the installation files are, select '''/dev/sda1''' and press '''[enter]'''. * The graphical interface will fire up, follow it through, when allow you get to the partition editor, deselect /dev/sda1 and ensure that sdb1 is set to be booted from. Advanced users can configure their own partitions etc here, I recommend to keep it simple you choose the option to use the entire drive. * Then follow the installer through to the end. At the end, you'll reboot, remove your usb stick and you should boot up to a command line login promptmedia. Login as root with the password you defined during setup. * Issue an ifconfig and check to see whether you have an IP address or not. If you don't, issue a system-config-network and give your hda an ip address, gateway, dns etc and save and quit. Then issue a service network restart. * Finally, issue a hda-new-install [your setup code here], ignore the errors, let it run through and reboot when prompted. You should now have an amahi box.   '''NOTE:''' if you cannot login, try useradd admin && passwd admin to add a user Others may require changes to the fedora base systemBIOS.
