Why not? Can you be specific?
Aside from any minor issues that we're currently unaware of (or are
fixed in the upcoming v7.1.2), LAM should install and run on most
modern POSIX-like systems. To be specific: I'm not aware of any
problems with LAM running on FreeBSD.

I'm afraid that I really don't know any specifics about the ports
system (I know generally what ports is, but that's about it). If there
is a version of LAM available in there, it is provided by someone else,
not us. This is usually fine, however -- as the installation manual
indicates, building and installing is *usually* a case of "./configure
...; make all install". What version of LAM is in the ports system?
If you're having problems with the version there, you can either try to
contact its maintainer or download a tarball from the LAM/MPI web site
and build/install that.
