{{Warning|
<div style<nowiki>=</nowiki>"color:darkred">The Amahi team strongly recommends [[Amahi_11|installing from scratch]] over the upgrade.If that is not possible, UNINSTALL AS MANY APPS AS POSSIBLE BEFORE THE UPGRADE (and reinstall after the upgrade)!<br />
<br />
We have tested the fairly clean upgrade cases (with no/few modifications), on virtual machines. In general, there are too many variables involved to 100% ensure success. You must accept risk that your Amahi Server could break on upgrade.
:'''NOTE:'''
:* There is no upgrade path from [[Fedora_14|Fedora 14]] or [[Ubuntu|Ubuntu 12.04 LTS]] to [[Amahi 1011]]. This will require a new install. The [[HDA OS Migration Guide]] might be helpful.
:* For [[Fedora_19|Amahi 7]] users, an [[Amahi 8 Upgrade]], [[Amahi 9 Upgrade]] and [[Amahi 10 Upgrade]] will be needed before the [[Amahi 11]] upgrade can be accomplished (be advised this is untested).
== Preparation ==
We '''recommend you turn on a temporary DHCP server''', (e.g. in your router) since the network may go down for the duration of the actual upgrade.

Execute all commands as <code>root</code> user or precede commands with <code>sudo</code>
* Upgrade will work best if '''ALL''' apps are uninstalled (highly recommended)
* '''Back up your data as a precaution'''
* '''NOT ALL''' apps in previous Amahi versions are available for Amahi 11. Check the [https://www.amahi.org/apps App Store] before proceeding.
