* What this does is this: Installs the Amahi F21 repo, gets the mariadb base packages to avoid dependency conflicts, and installs base Amahi packages (that part should install several packages). If there are no errors, install Amahi (replace ''YOUR-INSTALL-CODE'' above with install code you got when creating a profile at [https://www.amahi.org/users your Amahi control panel]). If all goes well, it should tell you to reboot. Go ahead and reboot! Once it comes back from the reboot, you should have a fully functional home server using the IP address you set up in your network! Next you need to transition your network to use it! = Transitioning to your Amahi server = Once installed, you will want to transition your network to using your Amahi server. Here are some of the things you should know: * Your server will boot with the static IP you pre-configured in the Amahi control panel* This is a headless server, therefore it will boot to a text console. There is no desktop user interface.* It's strongly recommended you follow the [[transition to Amahi]] HDA guide to get your network fully working properly* You can verify if the dashboard is available by accessing it from any client using the IP address of your server '''<nowiki>http://IPADDRESS/</nowiki>''' or '''<nowiki>http://hda/</nowiki>''' (in most Windows clients this works even without DNS from your HDA)* The first time it will initialize, ask you to login, and enter a dashboard password. This is the First Admin User created earlier in the Fedora 21 installation.* Once you reach your [[Setup|dashboard]], you should [[Storage_and_file_sharing|create shares]] as needed, [[Adding_a_second_hard_drive_to_your_HDA|add more drives]], install apps, etc., etc.* Optionally refer to [[Greyhole#Amahi_7.2F8|Greyhole]] to install/configure storage pooling. = Troubleshooting = Visit the [[troubleshooting]] page if you find yourself in trouble.
