The ABINIT Users Mailing List ( CLOSED )

[Xin Liu <dut_liuxin@yahoo.com.cn>]

I also successfully compiled the abinip on a beowulf
cluster of P4 2.4G with Redhat linux 8.0(kernel 2.4.18
with bigmemory support enabled, and shipped from
Redhat), together with PGI fortran compiler
(V4.0),gcc(v3.2)and LAM-MPI (6.5.8).

I first installed trial version of PGI fortran with
its default setting. and then compiled the LAM-MPI
with PGI and GCC. After that I made some changes to 
makefile_macros.PGI_Lam, to specifie some enviromental
variables on my system( for parallel version ,compile
with hf77 is needed). 

After that, just make abinip. It goes without any
errors, and the tests results are comparable with
those in the Refs, and even the sequential version is
much faster than the binary downloaded from website.
Everything goes ok!

I hope the above description would be useful to all of
u!

Sincerely yours

Xin, Liu
