Hi Eduardo,

I have installed ifc 5.0.1 (evaluation version) on my 1.8GHz
Pentium 4 system running LM 8.1. This is the only way that I
can get a performance much better than with a Pentium III.
Unfortunately, I was not aware of the new architechture used
in the Pentium 4, and the problems (relating to speed) except
when using the Intel compiler. I have tested some astronomical
photometry software for speed using different compilers and
Pentium III (733MHz) and Pentium 4 (1.8GHz):
g77-3.0 + Pentium III: 1120s
g77-3.0 + Pentium 4  :  701s
ifc-5.0 + Pentium III:  960s
ifc-5.0 + Pentium 4  :  466s

The Pentium 4 instructions should be included
in gcc-3.1 and g77-3.1, but it is first expected
around April 2002.

You must edit the install script:
i386 --> i386-linux
