- First of all, you need to obtain g77 since this does not come as standard. A simple sudo apt-get install g77 would suffice. Note that this is not in the most recent Canonical Repositories so Hardy Heron reps need to be added to the sources.list file - a quick google on this is required.
- also, I noticed that one of the shared libraries (that should be in /lib) was not present. Make a soft link like so whilst in /lib:
- sudo ln -s i386-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1
- go back to ./ERANOS2.0/CODE/ERANOS/MAKE and edit the file creer_makefile.sh
- search for the text 'OPTECHO=' -e' (should be around line 134)
- change to OPTECHO ='' (note the two single quotation marks)
- And then do everything is stated in my previous message

I concur with everything Nick wrote. Here is what I did:
- place each CD in turn into computer. Execute the ./UTILS/copy_cd scripts
- the ./UTILS/copy_cd script on CD 4 will automatically run ./UTILS/Install script, which does not work. It is important to note that one should not rely on this script to install ERANOS. I seem to remember it worked fine when installing ERANOS on a UNIX machine, but for Linux there is something wrong ..
- next go to the folder (note from now on, the folders are relative to where you chose to copy the ERANOS source code:
./ERANOS2.0/CODE/ERANOS/MAKE/ARCH/PCLINUX
- edit the config file so that the variables 'CFLAGS', 'CPPFLAGS', 'FFLAGS' and 'FPPFLAGS' are all appended with the text ' -m32'.
- Go back two levels
- run ./creer_makefile.sh
- edit the file:
/ERANOS2.0/CODE/ALOS/PCLINUX/MAKE/Makefile
- add the text ' -m32' to the same variables as before.
- do the same to the following files:
./ERANOS2.0/CODE/ALOS/SRC/TRANSLATER/Makefile
./ERANOS2.0/CODE/ALOS/SRC/LU/Makefile
./ERANOS2.0/CODE/ALOS/SRC/GEMAT/Makefile
- run the command 'ulimit -s unlimited'
- go to folder: ./ERANOS2.0/CODE/ALOS/PCLINUX/MAKE
- make sure the installation is clean by running 'make clean'
- next run make properly by running 'make'
- this should result in no errors and a new binary called 'TRANS.x' in the folder ./ERANOS2.0/CODE/ALOS/PCLINUX/BIN
- next to to folder:
./ERANOS2.0/CODE/ERANOS/MAKE
- run 'make clean'
- run 'make'
- It should take approx 10 minutes to complete. IF you get seg faults or any other faults, it might be because you haven't run the 'ulimit' command or you haven't set the -m32 flag for both parts of the installation.
- You should now have a new binary in the folder:
./ERANOS2.0/CODE/ERANOS/BIN/eranos.x
- Next try and run eranos.x by simply typing in 'eranos.x'. This should give you the standard text that is always present at the start of a run. Press CTRL-C to stop.
- Next need to create libraries.
- Go to the following folder:
./ERANOS2.0/UTILS
- copy Install to Install_libs
- Remove everything before the text 'does the executable exist ?' except for the following:
: definition of the variables 'LINE', 'BIBROOT', 'TESTROOT' and 'DIR'
: the if/else statement that sets the variable 'ROOT_ERANOS_def'
: the if/else statement that sets the variable 'MACHINE'
: definition of the variables 'LIBROOT', 'LIBALOS', 'BINALOS' and 'BIN'
: definition of the 'PATH', 'INSTALLDIR' and 'DIRMAKE'
- Next copy the exectuables and the libraries to whereever you want on your system.
- Make sure anyone who uses ERANOS runs 'ulimit -s unlimited' before running ERANOS.

I WOULD STILL LIKE TO BE ABLE TO INSTALL ERANOS ON A UBUNTU MACHINE AT WORK BECAUSE IT IS SIGNIFICANTLY FASTER. I AM HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE GNUMAKE IN UBUNTU WHICH I DON'T SEEM TO HAVE WITH THE MAKE UTILITY IN CENTOS. IF ANYONE KNOWS WHY OR CAN PUT TOGETHER A SIMILAR HOW-TO LIST FOR INSTALLATION OF ERANOS ON UBUNTU, THEN I WOULD BE EXTREMELY GRATEFUL.

I am also looking at installing ERANOS on Linux (UBUNTU). Could you send me the PDF file as well?

Thanks

please can you send me this pdf file? (branovrban@zoznam.sk) I would like to install eranos and it can really help me. Thank you very much.

I wrote a pdf with the instructions for future reference:
