[mpich-discuss] Problems with running make

[Ron Palmer]

Reuti,
thanks for you suggestions... I did the ldd cpi (in the examples 
directory) on three computers, and I have attached three screenshot. I 
am using sargeant as the master, where I start these jobs from.

Looking at these, I installed gcc-gfortran.x86_64 on the other two 
computers as well, and they now have identical outputs as the first one 
(sargeant). Thanks for pointng this out and giving me help in how to 
check this.

I tried:
mpiexec -machinefile cluster.txt -np 6 ./cpi were the machine file has 
only two members, each with 4 cores. I received the same error message 
as before but that could be for many reasons, and I will now respond to 
Gus's email with a few clarifications.

I appreciate your efforts!
R
