Amahi 12

	WARNING
	This is beta software. We intend to make it automatically upgrade to the official Amahi 12 release. If you install, pplease report your results in the forums at https://forums.amahi.org See Amahi Docs for the officially supported version, Amahi 11 on Fedora 27.

Objective

Develop and test installation of Amahi 12, based on Fedora 33 for the next Amahi release.

New Install

Download

Fedora 33

• Minimal CD (Netinstall) - Fedora-Server-netinst-x86_64-33-1.2.iso

 (677MB; SHA1 c34921e16665721730449d3a6baf3531d0e8bd80)

• Full DVD - Fedora-Server-dvd-x86_64-33-1.2.iso

 (2.9GB; SHA1 a7b7a7836e8c5fe6e994f35c0426dc6c7a2c5fe6)

Amahi 12

rpm -Uvh http://f33.amahi.org/noarch/hda-release-12.0.0-1.noarch.rpm
dnf -y install hda-ctl
hda-install -i YOUR-INSTALL-CODE

Upgrade

To upgrade from Amahi 11 (Fedora 27) to Amahi 12 (Fedora 33), follow the guidance below (uninstall of all applications is best):

sudo dnf -y upgrade --refresh
sudo dnf -y install dnf-plugin-system-upgrade

Reboot

• Upgrade to Fedora 29:

sudo dnf -y system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=29 --nogpgcheck --allowerasing
sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot

• Upgrade to Fedora 31:

sudo dnf -y system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=31 --nogpgcheck --allowerasing
sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot

• Upgrade to Fedora 33:

sudo dnf -y system-upgrade download --refresh --releasever=33 --nogpgcheck --allowerasing
sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot

• Install Amahi 12 and start services:

sudo dnf -y install hda-ctl hda-platform
sudo systemctl enable --now hda-platform
sudo systemctl enable --now hda-ctl

Reboot

This will take about 1-2 hours depending on your internet connection.

NOTES: Fedora upgrade path only allows for going current version +2. Due to a dependency issue, the upgrade path must include Fedora 32. The path presented above appears to work best to achieve the upgrade to Fedora 33 without issues. Amahi hda-ctl and hda-platform have to be reinstalled in Fedora 33 as there currently are no repositories between Fedora 28 and Fedora 32. If that changes, the instructions will be updated.

To Do

• Create Amahi repo
• Create apps (rename F32 to F33)
• Test Apps

  • RPM Fusion Free (wrong version in repo)
  • RPM Fusion Non-Free (wrong version in repo)
  • HandBrake-cli
• Test Minimal CD (Netinstall) method
• Test Full DVD method
• Build apps testbot
• Test upgrade (27 to 33)
• Custom Fedora 33 CD (Amahi 12 Express)?
