= Alpha Release for Testers=
 
 
 
Welcome to the Alpha 2 release of '''Amahi Ubuntu Edition'''!
 
 
 
This is our second alpha release ... still expect turbulence! Let's start with the caveats and then on to how to install!
 
 
 
= Caveats =
 
* This is a second alpha release. Expect your machine to explode in a million pieces losing all the data.
 
* No graphical installer yet. Installation involves two CLI (command-line) commands
 
* No applications are available for Ubuntu yet. This is on purpose, so that we keep the focus tightly on platform stability before chasing ghosts in apps
 
* Only supported on Ubuntu 10.04 desktop and server edition
 
* 32bit is the only platform supported. x86 64bit and arm are not supported yet
 
* This has been also tested on Debian, but not as well as in Ubuntu
 
* There are '''no automatic updates or ways to update''' from your install to an eventual release or from the first alpha.
 
* [[Greyhole]] is not yet supported
 
* Debian is not well supported in this release (there are a couple of known issues). We are focusing on Ubuntu only for now.
 
 
 
= How to install Amahi on Ubuntu =
 
 
 
* Download Ubuntu 10.04 CD/DVD
 
* Install Ubuntu. Only 10.04 has been tested. If you want to test other releases, let us know if or how they work.
 
* Open a terminal and become root by typing:
 
    {{Code|sudo su -}}
 
* Double check your network settings with '''<code>ifconfig</code>''' and '''<code>route -n</code>'''
 
* Make sure you have the proper network settings set up in your [http://www.amahi.org/user control panel], with one profile and one install code
 
* Get the installer:
 
    {{Code|wget http://ubuntu.amahi.org/ubuntu.install}}
 
* Then start the install with your install code
 
    {{Code|sh ubuntu.install YOUR_INSTALL_CODE}}
 
 
 
This should take a little while and many messages will flash by the screen.
 
 
 
At the end, reboot. After that, '''<nowiki>http://hda</nowiki>''' should be working.
 
 
 
= Other =
 
 
 
Refer to the [[Debian]] page for the latest info, how to install via other methods and development updates.
 
 
 
The old Ubuntu information (mostly out of date now) is in the [[Ubuntu old]] page.
