+= Manual Installation of Sahana =
+This older way of installing & configuring Sahana Eden remains documented here
+
+== 1: Add Swapfile ==
+You should add swap from a swap file in order to improve performance (especially on a Micro instance):
+{{{
+sudo su -
+dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile1 bs=1024 count=524288
+mkswap /swapfile1
+chown root:root /swapfile1
+chmod 0600 /swapfile1
+swapon /swapfile1
+# Make persistent across reboots
+cat << EOF >> "/etc/fstab"
+/swapfile1 swap swap defaults 0 0
+EOF
+
+}}}
+
+== 2: Install Sahana ==
+* Copy the installation and configuration scripts into the launched instance (assuming [wiki:InstallationGuidelines/Linux/Server/CherokeePostgreSQL Cherokee & PostgreSQL]):
+{{{
+wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sahana/eden_deploy/master/install-eden-cherokee-postgis.sh
+chmod a+x install-eden-cherokee-postgis.sh
+wget --no-check-certificate https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sahana/eden_deploy/master/configure-eden-cherokee-postgis.sh
+chmod a+x configure-eden-cherokee-postgis.sh
+
+}}}
+
+* Run the install-eden-cherokee-postgis.sh script. [Note: This step takes about 10min - grab a coffee]
+{{{
+sudo su -
+./install-eden-cherokee-postgis.sh
+
+}}}
+
+If you wish to update your site from an alternate github repo this can be done using:
+* ConfigurationGuidelines#SwitchtoanalternateGitHubrepo
+
+== 3. Configure Sahana ==
+Run configure-eden-cherokee-postgis.sh to configure the instance:
+{{{
+sudo su -
+./configure-eden-cherokee-postgis.sh
+
+}}}
+
+* Add your FQDN to {{{/etc/hosts}}} to ensure emails are accepted by all remote mailers:
+{{{
+vim /etc/hosts
+127.0.0.1 host.domain host localhost
+
+/etc/init.d/exim4 restart
+
+NB On new Amazon instances you may also need to prevent Amazon from auto-updating this file by commenting this aspect:
+vim /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg
+# - update_etc_hosts
+
