Hi Fotis,

Thanks for the reply. I didn't realize that there were premade eb files like 
those. I am using those now. Still having issues with it, but I will get to 
those later. As for the 4.7.3.1, that was just what eb did because I already 
had another one in that directory that was 4.7.3.0 and 4.7.3, and by the time I 
went there and looked at it, I had 4.7.3.2 and 4.7.3.3. You can see how many 
times I failed I guess. :)

I am now just trying to install eb on the network in hopes to solve some path 
issues. As a side note, when I used "EASYBUILD_BUILDPATH=/tmp time eb 
OpenMPI-1.7.3-GCC-4.8.2.eb --try-toochain=GCC,4.7.3 
--try-software-version=1.7.4", it just complained that 
"EASYBUILD_BUILDPATH=/tmp: Command not found."

Once again, thanks for all the help.

actually, to be more precise, I also have a tendency to employ /dev/shm:

> EASYBUILD_BUILDPATH=/dev/shm


when there, that speeds up the builds considerably, but has a tendency to make 
things
that do not have 'parallel=1' to break more often (or, that's my anecdotal 
experience report)
