Hi, Yingliang,
If you're familiar with linux and basic shell, some of problems you
mentioned can be avoided.

you should use "gunzip -c amber7.tgz | tar xvf -". the space before '-' makes
the difference. or you can simply use "tar zxvf amber7.tgz".

$AMBERHOME is not a directory name, but a environment variable. it just points
to your amber directory. if you installed amber into your home directory, you
can set $AMBERHOME to $HOME/amber7

the default SHELL is bash, you can make sure of that by "echo $SHELL". in
bash, you use "export AMBERHOME=<whatever your amber path is>"

I don't know what package owns xmkmf, but it might be just because it's not on
your search path.
