| |
− | | |
− | Welcome to the Beta 1, 32-bit release of '''Amahi Ubuntu Edition'''!
| |
− | | |
− | This is our first beta release ... still expect turbulence! Let's start with the caveats and then on to how to install!
| |
− | | |
− | = Caveats =
| |
− | * This is a fist beta release. Expect things to mostly work, but your machine could still explode in a million pieces, losing all the data.
| |
− | * '''Only 32-bit''' is supported. The 64-bit and ARM editions are not supported yet.
| |
− | * No graphical installer yet. Installation involves two CLI (command-line) commands.
| |
− | * Note that this is intended to be installed under Ubuntu '''12.04 i686 desktop or server'''. Ubuntu server takes 2.1GB of disk vs 3.7GB for desktop.
| |
− | * We do not recommend or support the likes of Kubuntu/Lubuntu/Gobuntu/Edubuntu or any other Ubuntu derivative. Feel free to report results if you do attempt any of these flavors.
| |
− | ** Xubuntu has been tested and appears to work fine.
| |
− | *<s> Not many 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</s>
| |
− | * There are 70+ apps live at the moment with more to follow.
| |
− | * [[Greyhole]] is not fully functional. It needs some minor tweaks before it will work.
| |
− | * hda-diskmount script works, but you need to install one dependency before using it (pmount).
| |
− | * hda-first-admin script is broken. It involves some ruby issues, so do not recommend using it.
| |
− | * SSH ([http://www.amahi.org/apps/openssh OpenSSH] and [http://www.amahi.org/apps/dropbear Dropbear]) and [http://www.amahi.org/apps/openvpn VPN] are not integrated into the platform. They are now apps that you install if needed.
| |
− | | |
− | = How to install Amahi on Ubuntu i386 =
| |
− | | |
− | * Download the Ubuntu 12.04 CD/DVD from the [http://www.ubuntu.com/download Ubuntu downloads] page
| |
− | * Install Ubuntu
| |
− | * Start a terminal. On the Dash home, search for ''terminal''. Click on the icon with caption terminal
| |
− | * 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 by executing the following command in the terminal window (hint: use copy and paste):
| |
− | {{Code| wget http://u12.amahi.org/install-amahi }}
| |
− | * Then start the install with
| |
− | {{Code| sh install-amahi }}
| |
− | * The install script partially runs as root so it will ask for your install code and password
| |
− | * This should take a while (about 5~10 minutes). The time depends on the speed of your PC and your internet connection.
| |
− | * Once the installation is completed the system will tell you to reboot.
| |
− | | |
− | 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".
| |
− | | |
− | = Known Issues =
| |
− | | |
− | * The name of the first user has three extra commas after the name, e.g. "Amahi User,,,"
| |
− | * The network restarts during installation in some systems and you may loose connection to the port-2000 installer
| |
− | * Debian is not well supported in this release (there are a couple of known issues). We are focusing on Ubuntu only for now.
| |
− | *<s> DNS server reports as "Stopped" with a red light (settings tab, servers Sub-Menu). Is it really off? Well, typing HDA, drupal, or names of other web-apps into the URL bar gets you to the correct app...</s>
| |
− | *<s> SSH is not installed. Need to make an SSH app so users can decide.</s>
| |
− | | |
− | = Troubleshooting =
| |
− | | |
− | Double check your network settings with '''<code>ifconfig</code>''' and '''<code>route -n</code>'''. These should be the settings that you use in the installation. If these are not correct you can change the ip address by issuing the command
| |
− | {{Code|sudo ifconfig eth0 192.168.1.14 netmask 255.255.255.0 up}}
| |
− | assuming 192.168.1.14 is your IP address. The route can be changed with
| |
− | {{Code|sudo route add default gw 192.168.1.1}}
| |
− | assuming 192.168.1.1 is the address of your router.<br>
| |
− | | |
− | This is especially important if you are doing a headless install
