Installation of OpenFOAM-1.6-ext on Centos 5.5 64-bit
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Network download and installation from:
ftp://mirrors.usc.edu/pub/linux/distributions/centos/5.5/os/x86_64/
Basic configuration:
Desktop - Gnome
Packages from CentOS Extras: unchecked
Complete installation log: /root/install.log
Run Package updater to update your installation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Add your user as a valid user for the command 'sudo'.
You will need to use the command 'visudo' as the user root for this.
I won't go into the details for this, there is a lot of info all over the Net
for doing this relatively minor adjustment.
In doubt, simply ask your local Unix guru.
