__TOC__
'''NOTES:'''
* The only '''officially supported''' install media is Fedora 23 Server.
* Ensure your system meets the [[Requirements|http://docs.amahi.org/requirements.html minimum hardware requirements]] for Amahi before proceeding.
* 32-bit installs '''are not''' available nor supported in Amahi 9.
* '''NOT ALL''' apps available in previous Amahi 8 versions are fully operational available for Amahi 9. Check the [https://www.amahi.org/apps App Store] before proceeding.
* You must install Fedora 23 Server prior to installing Amahi 9.
* Burn the ISO to CD/DVD (or [[USB Install|USB]]), insert the media into your server, and reboot the system.
* These instructions below will guide you through the Fedora 23 Netinstall CD installation with screen shots and commentary. If you are not an advanced Linux user and know what you are doing, recommend you '''DO NOT''' deviate from the guidance. Click '''[Expand]''' to show a screen shot and '''[Collapse]''' to hide it.

<div style="border: 1px solid #A3B1BF; padding: .5em 1em; color: #000; background-color: #FFB6C1; margin: 3px 3px 1em 3px;">'''WARNING:''' Amahi staff doesn't recommend using the default ''LVM'' partition scheme. Doing so will dedicate most of the drive space in the system to the ''/home'' partition. Amahi does not utilize this space, limiting storage for file shares and web applications. For best results and maximum storage, use the ''Standard'' partition scheme.</div>
<ul>
<li>Choose the disk drive you want to use for the Fedora installation. If you have more than one disk drive connected, '''DO NOT''' select them at this time. You will notice a ''check mark'' on the disk drive selected. Select ''I will configure partitioning'' and then choose ''Done''.

<li>The disk drive partition should look similar to this setup. For most users, then default partitioning scheme used will suffice. However, you can manually change it using the hard drive partition scheme documentation as a guide. Once complete, choose ''Done''

= Install Amahi 9 =
Next, we will install Amahi 9 proper on top of Fedora 23. When you reboot you will see a black screen with no graphics and a "localhost login" text prompt. Login into that that console directly with the user you created in the Fedora 23 installation. (You can also use SSH to login remotely from a client if you know how.)
You need to obtain an install code (denoted YOUR-INSTALL-CODE below) from the [https://www.amahi.org/users Amahi control panel] after configuring a profile for the system you are installing, with '''proper network configuration''' for your network.
From text console or using SSH, login (logged in with the user created in the Fedora 23 installation and ), become ''root'' for the Amahi installation. When prompted for a password, it's your user password you set in the Fedora 23 install.<br />

What this does is installs the Amahi F23 repo, gets the mariadb base packages to avoid dependency conflicts, and installs base Amahi packages (that part should install several packages).
