Installation in an existing Fedora machine

NOTE: this is not a recommended method to install, unless it's done on a fairly clean install of the distribution. The reason is that some things that may have been done to the machine that may affect the way the HDA behaves. In that case, issues may be harder to debug/fix. The recommended method is doing it from scratch.

Regardless, here are the install instructions, all of them executed as full root (either "su -" or logged in directly as root or as sudo):

  • First, update to Fedora 9.5 (long story):
     yum -y install fedora-release
  • Install the Amahi release for Fedora 9
     rpm -ivh http://f9.amahi.org/noarch/hda-release-0.3-1.noarch.rpm
  • Then, also as full root (/usr/sbin/hda-install is not in the path otherwise), do this:
     yum -y install hda-suite
     hda-install -f <install-code>
