Dear Desai,
You can download Koha from here: http://koha-community.org/download-koha/ . But the manual installation is a bit clumsy due to numerous dependencies.
Live CDs or DVDs are the easiest way to install Koha. Live CDs are customized Operating Systems with preinstalled software. That means you have to just install the OS from the CD/DVD and you will find Koha already installed in the OS (which is far easier than installing Koha manually)
If you require only Koha, you can find the latest Koha Live DVD here:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/kohalivedvd/files
This Live DVD is based on Xubuntu 12.04 with Koha 3.12 .
This live DVD work was done by Shri Vimal Kumar for Koha community. We are privileged to have him as a LIS links member here http://lislinks.com/profile/vimalkumar . Let us heartly congratulate him for making our lives easier.
And you can also find another wonderful Live CD from Dr. A.R.D. Prasad and Dr. Sunitha Barve here:
LibLiveCD version 1.4.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/liblivecd/files/Version-1.4/LibLiveCD contains lUbuntu 12.04 LTS, DSpace-3.1, Koha-3.10.4 &
Drupal-7.20.For further help you can also find the manuals in respective sites.
NB: It is important to change the default passwords after the installation.
With warm regards,
Mithun Raj
