Installing Fedora14/Amahi on PC with XP installed. How?

Postby svagol » Tue Mar 29, 2011 1:59 am

I have a couple of times unsuccessfully tried to go through installation using the standard newbie guide: http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Fedora_14_install_guide
As I install Fedora next to an existing XP, I follow slightly different screens, booting from the DVD, and then initiating the installation to the HDD. As the previous times, the installation process starts without any possibility to graphically add the amahi sw repository prior to installation of Fedora.
Then I use the Amahi post install instructions at http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Self-install-existing
Ẅith the supporting comments received from the fedoraforum, I run yum install hda-suite, solve the dhclient conflicts and achieve the Complete!

This is what I am told to do next:
* Start the Amahi web installer: service amahi-installer start
* Goto: http://localhost:2000 to complete install. You can get your Install Code by logging into http://amahi.org and going to your control panel.

Entering service amahi-installer start in the terminal gives the error reply pasted in below. What should I do? How do I go on? (NB limited knowledge of Linux/Fedora/Amahi!)

Updating : 12:dhclient-4.2.0-19.P2.fc14.i686 1/2
Cleanup : 12:dhclient-4.2.0-6.fc14.i686 2/2

Updated:
dhclient.i686 12:4.2.0-19.P2.fc14

Complete!
[root@AmahiHomeServer sveinage]# service amahi-installer start
amahi-installer: unrecognized service

Hello,

The link you provided for the standard install is not the official install guide. That guide is located at http://www.amahi.org/support/instructions. This is the only officially supported method of install. The other methods may work, but the support available to assist may be limited.

Also, what did you do different for install from the guide. This will help us better assist you. I presume you used the Fedora 14 Full DVD for install.
