{{Warning|
<div style<nowiki>=</nowiki>"color:darkred">The Amahi team strongly recommends [[Amahi_8_Install|installing from scratch]] over the upgrade.<br />
:'''NOTE:''' There is no upgrade path from [[Fedora_14|Fedora 14]] or [[Ubuntu|Ubuntu 12.04 LTS]] to [[Amahi_8|Amahi 8]]. This will require a new install. The [[HDA OS Migration Guide]] might be helpful.

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.
