Amahi Forums

Hello,

I have installed Fedora 10 from a DVD than followed the wiki page for a self installation of Amahi.
After reboot, the HDA has lost its primary network connection eth0.

Have I missed something ?
How can I restore it ?

Thanks

typically this is caused by not having set up the network gateway precisely.

can you ping the router ip address from the hda?

please follow the network troubleshooter and indicate at what step do you get stuck at.

Actually, I seemed to have a network problem during Fedora install. The hda won't download new packets :it kept asking me for the eth0 configuration when I tried to add the Amahi repository.

So I re-installed Fedora 10 from a DVD with adding the Amahi repository => OK
I have a working network. I can browse the Internet from Fedora.
But when I install Amahi (following the self install existing wiki on http://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Self-install-existing), the network icon disappears, and it seemsI have lost eth0 completely.

for others's sake ... (can someone moderate this up?)

this file:
contained this line:
which made eth0 NOT come up at boot time (obviously). question is WHY?

WHY was this file like that after hda-install??

now if we could find that particular issue.

did you update all RPMs before installing amahi?

Im pretty sure this problem stems from the fact that new users are asked to enter in their gateway and ip info on the website before they have installed Amahi, and then after they install Amahi it pulls that info even if its not the correct setup.

Im facing similar issues right now, however i can add the repository, install fedora and access the network/internet from fedora...however as soon as i install Amahi from terminal it pulls my network configuration from my profile on the website and that doesnt work with my setup.

Im working on correcting this, but im using Amahi in a VirtualBox VM, which complicates it a little.

To Zetass, check your config in fedora before you install Amahi using terminal commands;
This will tell you which ip address and which gateway address work, you then will need to enter this information into your account by logging into the amahi.org site. This might help...im not sure its what im trying.

Actually, I have resolved this issue after several retries.
I simply updated Fedora 10 before I installed Amahi and it worked.
