The Menuet OS seems to work from 386 and up, I do not know exactly,
but Kolibri seems to want Pentium, I tried it on my old good 386
mainframe with 8Mb RAM - doesn't want to load.

You'll need the 7-zip archiver, it is free:

http://heanet.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/sevenzip/7z442.exe

It is Windows installer.

Then get DOSBox, version for Kolibri platform:


http://diamondz.land.ru/dosbox.7z

You'll unpack it with 7-zip into any folder
with strongly 8.3 format of name.

Yes, but I'm not sure about English versions.
This link:
http://www.kolibrios.org/?&lang=en
will give you the English home page of their site.

Now I'm working on some bilingual (English, Russian)
instruction on how to launch DOS32 Euphoria in Kolibri
environment.

In day or two, I plan to post it to RDS contrib page.
