{{NeedsUpdate}}== Amahi 7 Install Fedora ==<b>NOTE:</b> Guidance is incomplete Insert the USB flash drive into your server, reboot the system, and this <b>DOES NOT</b> follow applicable install instructions to complete the install. This method may not workwell with UEFI firmware based hardware. Need more details. Recommend following the See [[Fedora_19_USB_installInstall_troubleshooting|Fedora 19 USB installationInstall Troubleshooting]] guidance instead as it's proven successfulfor details.
This is untested, however, Amahi 7 may be bootable via USB disk as follows:* copy the image to a USB drive* boot from it* when the bootloader comes up, manually change the command line to replace this: inst.stage2=hd:LABEL=Amahi\x207.1\x20x86_64with inst.stage2=hd:sda1 That assumes sda1 is where the USB drive is coming up at boot time. Yours may be different. == UNetbootin based instructions (Fedora 14) ==1. Setup a USB Flash Drive as you normally would using [http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ UNetbootin] 2. When UNetbootin has completed, exit but do not select the reboot option. Next copy the [[Express CD|Express CD]] ISO to the root of the USB Flash Drive. 3. Change the file syslinux.cfg to read as follows: default vesamenu.c32 prompt 0 menu title UNetbootin timeout 100<br > label unetbootindefault menu label Default kernel /isolinux/vmlinuz append initrd=/isolinux/initrd.img ks=hd:sda1:/advanced.cfg quiet <br /> label ubnentry0 menu label ^Expert install for Amahi headless - Graphic installer kernel /isolinux/vmlinuz append initrd=/isolinux/initrd.img ks=hd:sda1:/advanced.cfg quiet 4. Most likely '''hdNOTE:sda1''' will be what your USB Flash Drive is assigned (the remaining instructions assume your USB Flash Drive is '''sda1''' and the hard drive Some BIOS have function keys that allow you're installing to is''' sdb1'''). * Boot up your target PC from the USB Flash Drive and choose Expert Install or let it time out - you'll get to the same place either way. * Eventually the installer will complain that it can't find the Install Disc, press '''[tab]''' until '''[Back]''' is highlighted and press '''[enter]'''. * When asked type of Installation Method, navigate to Hard Drive and press '''[enter]''' * When asked partition where the installation files are, select '''/dev/sda1''' and press '''[enter]'''. * When the graphical interface begins, follow it through until you get to the partition editor. Deselect '''/dev/sda1''' and ensure that '''sdb1''' is set to be the boot partition. Advanced users can configure their own partitions here, but recommend keeping it simple by choosing the option to use the entire drive. * Once the installer finishes, reboot. Remove the USB Flash Drive and it should boot in to a command line interfacemedia. At the login prompt enter root as the user and the password you defined during setup. * Issue an ifconfig and check to see whether you have an IP address or not. If you don't, issue a system-config-network and give your hda an ip address, gateway, dns etc and save and quit. Then issue a service network restart. * Finally, issue a hda-new-install [your setup code here], ignore the errors, let it run through and reboot when prompted. 5. You should now have an Amahi box. '''NOTE:''' if you cannot login, try useradd admin && passwd admin to add a user Others may require changes to the fedora base systemBIOS.
