This is only recommended for cases where the Minimal (CD) Install does not work well (e.g. if your hardware needs extra drivers).

* Burn the ISO to DVD (or [[USB Install|USB]]), insert the media into your server, and reboot the system.

* These instructions below will guide you through the Fedora 25 Server DVD 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~~<Screenshot>]''' to show ~~a screen shot and '''[Collapse]''' to~~ /hide itthe image.

~~<li> Verify '''NETWORK & HOST NAME''' indicates ''connected''. Don't make any changes unless needed.</li>~~

</ul>

== Disk Drive Setup ==

<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''.

[[file:F25CD_SS3A.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

<ul>

<li> You should see the existing partition about half way down the screen.

[[file:F25CD_SS3B.PNG|600px]]

</div></li>~~<br>~~

<li>Choose it to expand and display the existing partitions for deletion. Select the first partition in the list followed by the minus (-) sign.

[[file:F25CD_SS3C.PNG|600px]]

</div></li>~~<br>~~

<li> When prompted Are you sure you want to delete all the data on ..., choose Delete It.

[[file:F25CD_SS3D.PNG|400px]]

</div></li~~><br~~> <li> Repeat the previous two steps until all the existing partitions on the disk drive are gone.</li~~><br~~>

</ul>

<li>Ensure the ''New mount points will use the following partitioning scheme:'' is changed to reflect '''Standard partition'''. Then select ''Click here to create them automatically''. ~~'''STRONGLY advise against using LVM or creating a separate /home partition.'''~~<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-collapsetext="{{int:Screenshot}}" style="width:400px">

[[file:F25CD_SS3E.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

<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''

[[file:F25CD_SS3F.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

<li>You will now see '''SUMMARY OF CHANGES''' to the disk drive. Choose ''Accept Changes''

[[file:F25CD_SS3G.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

</ul>

== Software Selection ==

<ul>

<li>Next on the '''INSTALLATION SUMMARY''', select ''SOFTWARE SELECTION''

<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-collapsetext="{{int:Screenshot}}" style="width:400px">[[file:~~F25DVD_SS4A~~F25DVD_SS5.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

<li>Select ''Minimal Install'' and then choose ''Done''

<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-collapsetext="{{int:Screenshot}}" style="width:400px">[[file:~~F25DVD_SS4B~~F25CD_SS4B.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

</ul>

== Begin Installation ==

<ul>

<li>Back to the '''INSTALLATION SUMMARY''' and ready to begin installation. Select ''Begin Installation''

[[file:F25DVD_SS5.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

</ul>

== Initial User Creation ==

<ul>

<li>Installation has begun and we need to create the initial user. '''DO NOT''' set the root password.

[[file:F25CD_SS6A.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

<li>You '''MUST''' create the initial user and password (This will be your HDA Login, also called the First Admin User). Ensure you select ''Make this user administrator'' check box. Once complete, choose ''Done''. Note that a weak password may require you to select ''Done'' twice.

[[file:F25CD_SS6B.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

<ul>

<li>Now all of the configuration steps are complete. Sit back and watch the progress.

[[file:F25DVD_SS7.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

</ul>

== Installation Complete ==

<ul>

<li>Installation is complete. Choose ''Reboot'' and remove the installation media.

<div class="mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" data-collapsetext="{{int:Screenshot}}" style="width:400px">[[file:~~F25DVD_SS8~~F25CD_SS8.PNG|600px]]

</div><br></li>

</ul>

Next, install Amahi 10 proper on top of Fedora 25.

<ul>

<li>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 and password you created in the Fedora 25 installation. (You can also use SSH to login remotely from a client if you know how)

</div><br><br>

~~When you reboot you will see a black~~ :'''NOTE:''' Passwords do not echo characters on the screen with no graphics and a "localhost login" text prompt. Login into that that console directly with the user you created in the Fedora 25 installation. (You can also use SSH to login remotely from a client if you know how.)

<li>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.<br><br>

<li>From text console or using SSH~~, login~~ (logged in with the user created in the Fedora 25 installation ~~and~~ ), become ''root'' for the Amahi installation. When prompted for a password, it's your user password you set in the Fedora 25 install.<br />

</div>

<li>After that, type these three separate commands (one per line) in the console:

<nowiki>rpm -Uvh http://f25.amahi.org/noarch/hda-release-610.90.0-1.noarch.rpm</nowiki>

dnf -y install hda-ctl

hda-install YOUR-INSTALL-CODE

</div>

~~'''NOTE:''' <code>yum</code> (deprecated) has been replaced with <code>dnf~~</~~code~~ul> ~~as the Fedora package manager.~~

What this does is installs the Amahi F25 repo, gets the mariadb base packages to avoid dependency conflicts, and installs base Amahi packages (that part should install several packages).
