NOTE: for installing Amahi 7 for development, visit the [[Fedora 19]] page
 
 
* Install Fedora 19 '''minimal''', 32 or 64 bits (desktop should be OK, LiveCD may not work as it includes different stuff)
 
** one way to do this is: http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/19/Fedora/x86_64/iso/Fedora-19-x86_64-netinst.iso
 
** 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 cd after installing and before rebooting.
 
* After a minimal install one needs to create a regular user
 
    useradd -c 'Amahi User' -g users -G wheel yourusername
 
* and the password
 
    passwd yourusername
 
* Install Amahi repo by hand with:
 
  <nowiki>rpm -Uvh http://f19.amahi.org/noarch/hda-release-6.9.0-1.noarch.rpm</nowiki>
 
* 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 stuff:
 
  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, try this as root:
 
  hda-install YOUR-INSTALL-CODE
 
* When that fails (and it will), please fpaste the log (you may have to yum -y install fpaste). The log should be in
 
  /root/hda-install-*.log
 
 
== Installing the Desktop ==
 
 
After this is installed, there is no desktop. You can see what groups of packages you can install with
 
 
    yum group list
 
 
One of the popular ones is GNOME Desktop environment. To install that you do:
 
 
      yum group install 'GNOME Desktop'
 
 
Needless to say, there are a few other environments you can choose to install besides GNOME.
