Amahi installation, part 2

The second pass went flawlessly.  The Amahi interface is up and running.  But I am out of time for configuring the server, since I am due elsewhere.

Amahi installation, part 1 redux

Too many package dependencies were failing.  Going back to the beginning, after reading the instructions.  SELinux was buggering up some things too.  I'm sure it will go much more smoothly this time.

Amahi installation, part 1

Well, I started right out with a non-standard installation.  I loaded Fedora 12 in a virtual machine on my ESXi/PowerEdge-1900 Box, before reading all of the instructions.  It turns out that you are supposed to add the Amahi repo during the installation of FC12.  But my habit is to install FC12, then vmware-tools, then the other stuff.  Now I've added the Amahi repo and letting yum run to its heart's content.  *drum roll*

Amahi Home Server

The torrent for Fedora 12 finished downloading last night.  So today the project is to install Amahi on the virtual machine.  After Waffle House, of course.  This is going to be fun.

New stuff in Windows Live™

I really need to spend some time playing with the goodies in Windows Live.  I know I'm a Google fan-boy, but Microsoft has caught my eye.  Of course I'll have to find out how it runs on OS X and Linux.
