Amahi releases new versions of Greyhole (GH) after they've been tested. Official Greyhole for Amahi on Ubuntu 12.04.x: 0.9.22

Option 1 - Use the Greyhole APT repository

If you didn't already, add the Greyhole APT repository to your APT configuration.

bash code
`sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://www.greyhole.net/releases/deb stable main" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/greyhole.list' curl -s http://www.greyhole.net/releases/deb/greyhole-debsig.asc \| sudo apt-key add - sudo apt-get update`

Option 2 - Manually install the latest DEB

1. Find current version:

bash code
`sudo greyhole`

2. Is there a new version? Browse the archive and copy the link for the latest greyhole.

http://www.greyhole.net/releases/deb/

3. Back to terminal, make sure you execute as root (sudo). Example update command for 64-bit:

bash code
`wget http://www.greyhole.net/releases/deb/greyhole-0.9.31-1.amd64.deb sudo dpkg -i greyhole-0.9.31-1.amd64.deb`

4. Check the GH log for any errors that might have occurred after the upgrade

bash code
`tail -f /var/log/greyhole.log`

5. Re-check the version of your newly updated Greyhole install, and enjoy!

bash code
`sudo greyhole`

-=== Option 1 - Use the Greyhole YUM repository ===
+The <b>ONLY</b> officially supported Greyhole package for Amahi 7 is available from the Amahi repository.  The Greyhole web site no longer provides updates for Amahi.
-. If you didn't already, add the Greyhole YUM repository to your YUM configuration.
+==Ubuntu 12.04.x ONLY==
-{{Code|curl -o /etc/yum.repos.d/greyhole.repo http://www.greyhole.net/releases/rpm/greyhole.repo.disabled}}
-. If you want to use this repository every time yum is used (including for Amahi automatic updates), change '''''/etc/yum.repos.d/greyhole.repo''''' from:
-{{Text|Text=enabled<nowiki>=</nowiki>0}}
-to
-{{Text|Text=enabled<nowiki>=</nowiki>1}}
-'''NOTE:'''  You can safely skip this step if you want to manually update in the future.
-. Update hda-greyhole to the latest version:
-{{Code|yum --enablerepo<nowiki>=</nowiki>greyhole update hda-greyhole}}
-=== Option 2 - Manually install the latest RPM ===
-. Find current version:
-{{Code|rpm -q hda-greyhole}}
-. Browse the archive and copy the link for the latest hda-greyhole (Amahi needs hda-greyhole, the regular greyhole will conflict)
-<blockquote>http://www.greyhole.net/download/archives.html</blockquote>
-. Back to terminal, make sure you are root (su). Example update command:<br>
-{{Code|rpm -Uvh http://www.greyhole.net/releases/rpm/`uname -i`/hda-greyhole-0.9.13-1.`uname -i`.rpm}}
-. Check the GH log for any errors that might have occurred after the upgrade
-{{Code|tail -f /var/log/greyhole.log}}
-. Re-check the version of your newly updated Greyhole install, and enjoy!
-{{Code|rpm -q hda-greyhole}}
-=== Troubleshooting ===
-'''Can't access your shares after you upgraded?'''
-Try to re-install the same RPM a second time. Sometimes, the script included in the RPM can't create the Greyhole module for Samba where it should, and this will cause your Greyhole pooled shares to become unaccessible. Re-installing the same RPM a second time always fix that issue. Use the following command to reinstall the currently installed RPM:<br>
-{{Code|rpm -Uvh --force http://www.greyhole.net/releases/rpm/`uname -i`/`rpm -qa hda-greyhole`.rpm}}
-Use the following command to verify that the Samba symlink was indeed created:
-{{Code|ls -l /usr/lib*/samba/vfs/greyhole.so}}
