Hello,



I am a volunteer to set up a small community library in Mombasa, Kenya -
probably 100 users and maybe 1000 or so books.  I came across the Koha
project whilst researching what program to use to administer the library.



The funding for this library is very limited and relies almost 100% on
donations.  That is why I am considering Koha and also why I would like to
install it on Linux Operating system.



As far as computers are concerned, we have two 486-sx units with 32MB RAM.
Would these work?  If not, what minimum config would you suggest?



Would you or anyone be able to assist me set it up?  I have limited
knowledge of linux - most of what I know I learnt from setting up a firewall
(www.smoothwall.org <http://www.smoothwall.org/> ).  I think that with
instructions over email or from the net, I may be able to set this up (and then
maybe even assist other libraries who'd like to install Koha ;) ).



I would appreciate any help that you may be able to provide.



Thank you,



Kind regards,



Malik Karachiwalla
