Fresh install/no hda-install AS ROOT!

Hello,

I tried installing Amahi (Fedora9-i386-DVD.iso) on my pc. Using the dvd i booted, followed the install instructions. Install completed. All i had left was to enter hda-install + code in a terminal but that command can't be found! (i logged in as ROOT!)
I also couldn't add sources during installation and tried to do so after the installation but i can't find where i should do that..
?

ps: after the installation my ip was 192.168.1.5 (instead off the 192.168.1.10 that i had registered in my control panel) I deleted that profile and made an new one, this time with the right ip) But i still can't "hda-install". I did however was able to run updates. Tried to get a vncserver going (which it did) but i can't get access remotely. ports in the firewall are forwared correctly (5900/5901/5902/5903) Vncpasswd for the user had been set.

ps: i used a dvd-drive to install Amahi, but removed it afterwards so that i can use 4 ide-harddisks in the pc in stead off just 3. I hope/guess that does not influence the systems performance.

Hope ik can fix all this because the pxe booting/backup option really sounds great to me!!!

Hi,

This is rather strange. did you add the http://f9.amahi.org repo during install?

The hda-install program should be installed if you did, and it should be in /usr/bin/hda-install

If not, and you rather not reinstall (which is what id' nominally recommend), you can try the procedure to install on an existing F9 system.
