Amahi 7 full DVD

Installing Amahi 7 32bits

• Install Fedora 19 minimal, 32bits (desktop should work OK, LiveCD may not work, but only minimal is recommended)
  • boot, choose Install Fedora, choose language; then in software selection choose "minimal install";
  • this is not the default and is at the bottom of the list. Don't forget to remove the DVD after installing and before rebooting.
• After a minimal install one needs to login as root first (in a text console)
• Then create a regular user (replace ``Amahi User`` with your name and `yourusername` with a username of your choice)

   useradd -c 'Amahi User' -g users -G wheel yourusername

• and set the password

   passwd yourusername

• Next, install the Amahi repo by hand with:

  rpm -Uvh http://f19.amahi.org/noarch/hda-release-6.9.0-1.noarch.rpm

• Get the mariadb base packages (this is to avoid dependency conflicts)

  yum -y install mariadb-libs mariadb-server

• If mariadb gives conflicts with mysql, uninstall all mysql packages first (and then try the line above):

  yum -y erase 'mysql*'

• Try installing both hda-ctl and hda-platform. This should install a lot of dependencies with them

   yum -y install hda-ctl hda-platform

• If that works, ```and only if that works```, so the Amahi install (also as root; replace YOUR-INSTALL-CODE with the code you set up in Amahi.org):

  hda-install YOUR-INSTALL-CODE

• If that fails, please fpaste the log (you may have to yum -y install fpaste). The log should be in

 /root/hda-install-*.log
