Burn ISO Due to DVD and install Fedora 21 upstream updates, please execute the steps below from it.the console prior to installing Amahi 8:
<div style== USB Install =="border: 1px solid #A3B1BF; padding: .5em 1em; color: #000; background-color: #E6F2FF; margin: 3px 3px 1em 3px; text-align: left"> su - chmod 600 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ecdsa_key chmod 600 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_ed25519_key chmod 600 /etc/ssh/ssh_host_rsa_key systemctl restart sshd</div>
You may use [http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ UNetbootin] (supports Windows/Linux/Mac OS]) for USB installs, using the ISO images above.
Ref: [https://bugs.amahi.org/issues/1871 Amahi Bug #1871] = Install Amahi 8 === Fedora 21 ==Start with the [[Fedora_21_Server_Install|Fedora 21 Server Install]] for basic and detailed guidance to complete the installation.
== Amahi 8 ==
Next, install Amahi 8 proper on top of Fedora 21.
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.
Login From text console or using SSH, login with the user created in the Fedora 21 installation and become ''root'' for the Amahi installation<br /> 
<div style="border: 1px solid #A3B1BF; padding: .5em 1em; color: #000; background-color: #E6F2FF; margin: 3px 3px 1em 3px; text-align: left">
sudo su -
</div>
<nowiki>rpm -Uvh http://f21.amahi.org/noarch/hda-release-6.9.0-1.noarch.rpm</nowiki>
yum -y install mariadb-libs mariadb-server
yum -y install rsyslog avahi
yum -y install hda-ctl hda-platform
hda-install YOUR-INSTALL-CODE
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 from 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 backfrom 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 =
* It will boot with the static IP you pre-configured in the Amahi control panel
* You can verify if the dashboard is available by accessing from any client using the IP address of your server '''<nowiki>http://IPADDRESS/</nowiki>''' or '''<nowiki>http://hda/</nowiki>''' (in some windows clients)
* It's strongly recommended that you [[Turning_off_DHCP_in_your_router|turn off the previous DHCP server]] and let Amahi handle DHCP so that DNS falls into place
* [[RenewIP|Reboot all the clients]] (or turn off network and turn it back on) to get them to use DHCP leases from your Amahi server
* The first time it will initialize, ask you to login, and enter a dashboard password for the admin user created earlier
* Once you reach your 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|Greyhole]] to install/configure storage pooling.
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.
