In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing MistServer on Fedora CoreOS latest.
Before we start the installation process, it's always recommended that we update our system to the latest version of the packages. To do so, we can use the following command:
sudo dnf update
Now, we are ready to download MistServer. We can download the latest version of MistServer from its official website using the following command:
wget https://mistserver.org/getstart.rpm
Once the download is complete, we can proceed to install MistServer by running the following command:
sudo dnf install getstart.rpm
This command will install MistServer along with all the required dependencies.
After the installation process is complete, we can start the MistServer service by using the following command:
sudo systemctl start mistserver
To verify whether the MistServer service is running or not, we can use the following command:
systemctl status mistserver
If the service is up and running, we should see the output similar to the one shown below:
● mistserver.service - MistServer streaming software
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/mistserver.service; disabled; vendor preset: disabled)

By default, MistServer is pre-configured to run on port 4242. If we wish to change the default configuration, we can create a new configuration file or edit the existing one located at /usr/share/mistserver/mistserver.conf.
Finally, we can access MistServer by opening a web browser and navigating to http://<server-ip>:4242. We should see the MistServer dashboard, which indicates that the installation was successful.
