  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | Welcome to the Alpha 3 release of '''Amahi Ubuntu Edition'''!
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | This is our third alpha release ... still expect turbulence! Let's start with the caveats and then on to how to install!
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | = Caveats =
  |   | 
| − | * This is a third 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
  |   | 
| − | * Note that this is intended to be installed under 11.10. It also seems to work under 10.04 and 11.04; but no warranty. It has been tested with ubuntu desktop, but server probably also should not cause problems. I suspect things like Kubuntu/Lubuntu/Gobuntu/Edubuntu/.... will also work but this is not tested. No warranty. Feel free to report results.
  |   | 
| − | * 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 11.10 desktop and server edition
  |   | 
| − | * '''only 32bit'' is 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 awxibs 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 11.10 CD/DVD
  |   | 
| − | * Install Ubuntu. Only 11.10 has been tested. If you want to test other releases, let us know if or how they work. Aim is to move a soon as possible to 12.04LTS and stick with that one for a while.
  |   | 
| − | * 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/install.11.10}}
  |   | 
| − | * Then start the install with     {{Code|sh install.11.10}}
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | This should take a little while and many messages will flash by the screen.
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | If you are on a system with a display and have firefox installed, firefox will start and prompt you for the install code. (you can get your install code from www.amahi.org).
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | If you are on a system with GUI but without firefox (but e.g. Konqueror or Chrome) start your browser and browse to http://localhost:2000. 
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | If you are installing on a headless system where you have no window system running browse to the web gui from a different system. This is done by browsing to http://<ip address of your amahi system>:2000
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | In either case your browser will ask you for your install code and start installing some additional packages. There is a progress indicator, but don't trust it too much as it has not been tuned very well.
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | Once the installation is completed the system will tell you to reboot. Do so.
  |   | 
| − | Note that rebooting will change the IP address of your system to the addres you've given when creating your install code.
  |   | 
| − |    |   | 
| − | After rebooting, '''<nowiki>http://hda</nowiki>''' should be working if entered on the local system. From a remote system this will only work if you have your DNS pointing to the amahi system as otherwise your system cannot resolve the name "hda".
