NOTE: 32-bits IS NOT available nor supported for Amahi!

Boot, choose Install Fedora, choose language
Choose the hard drive partitioning scheme
DON'T change the hostname (it may create issues)
Click on Begin Installation and the installer will proceed
Create a user with a password. Make sure it's an admin user. Recommend creating a root password.
Once install completes, don't forget to remove the DVD after installing and before rebooting.
Upon reboot, login as root first (in a text console)
Login with the user and become root for the Amahi installation

 sudo su -

  rpm -Uvh http://f21.amahi.org/noarch/hda-release-6.9.0-1.noarch.rpm

  yum -y install mariadb-libs mariadb-server

   yum -y install hda-ctl hda-platform

If there are no errors, install Amahi (Replace YOUR-INSTALL-CODE with install code from the Amahi web site):

  hda-install YOUR-INSTALL-CODE

It will boot with the static IP you pre-configured in the Amahi control panel
You can verify if the dashboard is available by accessing from any client using the IP address.
It's strongly recommended that you turn off the previous DHCP server and let Amahi handle DHCP so that DNS falls into place
Reboot all the clients to get them to use your Amahi server
Your Amahi dashboard should be available at http://hda
The first time it will initialize, ask you to login, and enter a dashboard password for the admin user created earlier
Optional refer to Greyhole to install/configure storage pooling.
