This won't work. sander is a serial program. You need to use
"sander.MPI" with mpirun.

What is $AMBERHOME? Is it /usr/local? You need to have write permissions
in $AMBERHOME in order to compile it. The first time it tries to create a
file (in this case, during the update process), it fails with a permission
error.
So your options are either
1) Use "chown" to change the ownership of $AMBERHOME to your username.
Something like this: "sudo chown -R `whoami` $AMBERHOME"
2) Install as root. I highly recommend NOT doing this. ESPECIALLY if you
are not a relative expert with Linux/Unix.
