John,

OK.  Will I run into a disk quota problem like I did when I tried to install
on s418?

I just started the build of McIDAS-X on grog; it failed.  Here is the
error information from the McIDAS make log:

I wrote a two line test Fortran routine and tried to compile/link it on grog:

testit.f
      program testit
      end

f77 -o testit testit.f
testit.f:

The entry point 'elf32_checksum' should be in the elf libraries
libelf.a and libelf.so.1:

output from our Solaris SPARC 5.6 machine:

It appears that the development environment on grog is broken.  You
may want to update ld on your system to patch level 107733-08.

I have the password to build/install McIDAS, but not the LDM.

Elen,

Can you clarify whether or not you need the LDM installed ASAP?  Given
your first note this morning, it appears like you need McIDAS-X in
order to do analyses to fulfill a grant.  If this is the case, the LDM
could wait.  If you do want the LDM installed, configured, and
activated today, it can be done but it will take a little longer.
