So i am tyring to install amahi on my second computer so i have it in the amahi installation and i choose the option: Install Amahi 7.1.
After that the white bar goes to the other end, which says fedora 19. Then it gives me an error and says that it has made a log on the installation drive.
the errors i get are:
dracut-initqueue[354] warning could not boot
dracut-initqueue[354] warning could not boot
dracut-initqueue[354] warning:dev/root does not exist

generating "/run/initramfs/sosreport.txt"
however i cant find this anywhere on the drive.

Appears install has failed. Recommend you start over.

I've tried reinstalling it multiple times, do i need to be connected to the network on the computer when I install it? is there a way i can confirm the md5 for my iso file?

Did you verify your machine meets the minimum system requirements? One of those is a hard-wired internet connection.

I will try it with a Ethernet cable. I thought the on board wifi was working

The install must be done with Ethernet cable per the wiki link I provided. Wireless install IS NOT supported.

Is this an old machine? Does it meet the minimum hardware requirements as noted in the wiki page I provided?

The other option would be to try the Amahi 7 Full DVD install method.
