Hello,
  Just joined the list and the LAM world in general. Trying to run LAM on
a set of G5 Xserves and have run into a problem;

After downloading and installing the package on one machine (call it bp08)
I get the following:

laminfo

             SSI rpi: usysv (API v1.0, Module v7.1)
              SSI cr: self (API v1.0, Module v1.0)

Of course, it turns out that we need Fortran support, and I have to
compile the code.

I've done this on the same machine, however, as it turns out, /usr/local
is NFS exported from another box (call it bp01). So, I tarred the
directories up and moved them to bp01, untarred them and ran make
install. On this box I get:

./laminfo
             LAM/MPI: 7.1.1
              Prefix: /usr/local
        Architecture: m68k-apple-macos

Segmentation fault

(Lets disregard the Segmentation fault for the moment. at least I have the
Fortran bindings). The /usr/local directory is exported back to bp08:

bp01.isis.unc.edu:/mnt
                      80287128 10123064 69908064 13%
/private/automount/usr/local

Based on a letter I found from Feb 10th on this list, I went to
/Library/Receipts/Contents/Resources and found lam-mpi.bom, which when
querried produces:

. 40775 501/0
./usr 40775 501/0
./usr/local 40775 501/0
./usr/local/bin 40775 501/0
./usr/local/bin/hboot 100755 501/0 16988 1066722712
.
.
.
./usr/local/man/man7/libmpi.7 100644 501/0 7967 1516485839
./usr/local/man/man7/mpi.7 100644 501/0 7961 3186708915
./usr/local/man/mans 40775 501/0
./usr/local/man/mans/mpi.share 100644 501/0 7965 2451356181

./usr/local/share/lam/doc/APPLE_LICENSE 100644 501/0 19829 335628692

Now, I've rebooted bp08, unmounted /usr/local, and find nothing in any of
these directories. So there';s nothing I can remove, save the lam-mpi.pkg
directory from /Library/Receipts, I suppose. But somewhere on this box
there's some information since the laminfo is so radically different
between the two machines!

Any information will be appreciated, thanks,

Paul Mitchell
