Ray,

The gfs 211 and 212 grids are aliased in datatype.tbl
as GFS211 and GFS212.

As an example:

 GEMPAK-GDINFO>l     
 GDFILE   = GFS211
 LSTALL   = yes
 OUTPUT   = t
 GDATTIM  = all
 GLEVEL   = all
 GVCORD   = all
 GFUNC    = all
>r

 GRID FILE: /data/ldm/gempak/model/gfs/2007090606_gfs211.gem

<etc>

The GFS alias in datatype.tbl I have defaulted to the global grid #003
which is available in CONDUIT, but since you don't have #003 files below, you 
won't
see any output for those. There is no gfs01 template that I provide.

BTW,

I built 5.10.3 under FC4 here using G77 and the required
motif libraries and dependencies. See note on using g77
as a compiler instead of gfortran as you probably have an old
4.0.2 gfortran on your old fc4 distribution.
