The Amahi team strongly recommends installing from scratch over the upgrade.
|
- NOTE:
- There is no upgrade path from Fedora 14 or Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to Amahi 10. This will require a new install. The HDA OS Migration Guide might be helpful.
- For Amahi 7 users, an Amahi 8 Upgrade and Amahi 9 Upgrade will be needed before the Amahi 10 upgrade can be accomplished (be advised this is untested).

Upgrading Amahi 9 to Amahi 10
Preparation
We recommend you turn on a temporary DHCP server, (e.g. in your router) since the network may go down for the duration of the actual upgrade.
Execute all commands as root user or precede commands with sudo
- Upgrade will work best if apps are uninstalled
- Back up your data as a precaution
Let's begin!
- Update everything in the system:
dnf -y update
- Reboot to pick up new kernels, etc:
shutdown -r now
- Update everything in the system again:
dnf -y update
- If there are any updates, do it again. If there are new kernels, reboot:
shutdown -r now
Execution
Install the upgrade tool:
dnf -y install fedup
Do the live update over the network:
fedup -y --network 25 --nogpgcheck --allowerasing
Once the previous fedup command is complete, you will be prompted to run:
dnf system-upgrade reboot
The actual upgrade will take place now, so you will not be able to access the server (or possibly the network) until it is complete.
It would be good to have a monitor/keyboard on the system to cover the risk that the upgrade process becomes stuck somehow. This also should let you keep up with progress.
Be aware it may take 15 to 30 minutes at a minimum for the upgrade to complete, depending on your hardware.
Finalize
Once the upgrade is complete, execute the following to disable the firewall:
systemctl stop firewalld systemctl disable firewalld systemctl stop rolekit systemctl disable rolekit
You now should be able to access the dashboard at http://hda.
