Angrosh,
Forgot one thing, after you install Aurox or any Linux or Unix variant, go to:

http://webmin.com/

and install the tarball version of webmin (in order to get a reliable configuration), do not us RPM for aurox, there are library issues even with redhat 3.0 ES; then use the perl module tool in webmin to install all perl modules, it goes very fast and works fine.  You can then use the various webmin modules to configure your unix/linux variant. I found that I can do a complete install of Aurox , webmin, perl modules, and KOHA in about 30 to 45 minutes, including all of the configurations. And I have only started working with koha in the last two weeks.

Angrosh,
do not install redhat 3.0, there are several issues which cause problems, mostly the bastards at redhat purposely left out some files which you have to get from update services; same shit they learned from Microsoft.  Go to the Aurox web site:

http://aurox.org/pl/index.php

There is an English version of the site, and download aurox version 10.0.1a,  do a complete install and then remove the packages which you do not want. This polish version of Linux is free and is the Fedora 1.0 core. I have done several installs and they went well.. If you would like I can post instructions which should be easy to follow. If you have problem with download, tell me since I have already made the four discs for this version.

Dear Angrosh,

I have forwarded your message to the Koha mailing list - there are many skilled Linux people there - unfortunatly I'm not one of them.

Let me know if you don't get help from anyone and I'll try and find someone specifically to help you.

If you would like to join the Koha mailing list you are most welcome, and people there can give you a lot of help

Best wishes, and thankyou for choosing Koha :-)

cheers

Dear Sir,
 
I am verymuch impressed by KOHA and I am interested in using KOHA and automate our library. For this reason, I have installed Linux Redhat and changed my working environment.  
I tried to install Koha 2.0.0 on Redhat Enterprise Linux AS 3.
 
I carried out the following steps:
 
*_Installing MySQL Server_*
 
I downloaded mysql-server-3.23.58-1.386.rpm. Installed in TEMP directory
 
When is executed the following command:
 
[root@localhost tmp]# rpm -i mysql-server-3.23.58-1.386.rpm., I am getting the following:
 
Warning: mysql-server-3.23.58-1.386.rpm. V3DSA signature: No Key, Key ID 025e5136
