How it works

You put the Hardware, Amahi puts the Software

To run Amahi you need

  • A Linux DVD (Fedora or Ubuntu) from the torrents or mirrors
  • A PC (physical of Virtual Machine) to install Amahi on
  • A working Internet connection

Some people use Amahi headless (no video or keyboard/mouse, in the basement or the garage). Some people also use the system as a desktop. The choice is yours!

How it works

Hardware: PC or VM

Some people like to install Amahi on the latest/fastest hardware with a lot of storage, others prefer a power-efficient and quiet PC or VM.

Amahi supports the following architectures:

  • PCs with a 64-bit x86-64 processor
  • PCs with a 32-bit x86 processor. Not any more.
  • ARM architecture. Not any more.
