Configure Options: --configModules=PETSc.Configure --optionsModule=PETSc.compilerOptions --with-shared --with-debugging=0 --with-batch --with-mpi-dir=/home/edward/MPM/openmpi-1.4.4/build2
> Must give a default value for known-mpi-shared since executables cannot be run Well - as the message says - configure needs the user to tell it if mpi libraries are shared or not. i.e specify -known-mpi-shared=1 [or 0]. When --with-batch option is used - configure can't do 'run tests' to determin this itself. But I think the primary issue is - the openmpi install is broken. Hence you might gotten a message about - "can't run binaries - suggest using --with-batch" This is because oenmpi install is broken until you set the following [as per openmpi installation instructions] export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/edward/MPM/openmpi-1.4.4/build2/lib petsc-3.2 works arround this user-unfriendly feature.
