Hi,
installing GROMACS has just become that much easier. I have made RPMs that have now been included in Fedora 8 and Fedora 9. The packages are also available in the Fedora EPEL testing branches ( http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL ). In Fedora 8-> install with the following command: $ yum -y install gromacs If you also want to be able to run with MPI parallelization: $ yum -y install gromacs{‚-mpi} In RHEL/CentOS/ScientificLinux 4 & 5: $ yum --enablerepo=epel-testing -y install gromacs or $ yum --enablerepo=epel-testing -y install gromacs{,-mpi} If you also want to develop your own analysis software, you must also install the gromacs-devel package. (For MPI-enabled software the gromacs-mpi-devel package.) Once Gromacs 4.0.1 comes out I will update the RPMS, after that it will take about 3-4 days for the update to reach the mirrors. The package structure is the following: gromacs - single and double precision binaries gromacs-libs - libraries for the above gromacs-mpi - single and double precision MPI binaries (at the moment only mdrun, since there isn't a makefile option yet to build also the couple of analysis tools that have been parallelized) gromacs-mpi-libs - libraries for the above gromacs-common - man pages - html documentation - bash support (GMXRC, GMXRC.sh) - topology files gromacs-devel - header files - .so symbolic links - analysis tool template gromacs-mpi-devel - .so symbolic links gromacs-tutor - tutorial files gromacs-bash - bash autocompletion support gromacs-zsh - zsh support (GMXRC.zsh and autocompletion) gromacs-csh - csh support (GMXRC.csh and autocompletion in /usr/share/doc/gromacs-csh-4.0/doc) -- ------------------------------------------------------ Jussi Lehtola, FM, Tohtorikoulutettava Fysiikan laitos, Helsingin Yliopisto [EMAIL PROTECTED], p. 191 50623 ------------------------------------------------------ Mr. Jussi Lehtola, M.
