Hey David,

I tried to install sander.MPI with mpich following the manual :

i. cd /home/myname
tar xvfj AmberTools18.tar.bz2
ii. export AMBERHOME=/home/myname/amber18

iv. ./configure gnu
v. source /home/myname/amber18/amber.sh
v. make install

vi. cd $AMBERHOME/AmberTools/src
./configure_mpich <compiler-choice> ( I chose gnu).
make install

Nb. I skipped the sudo part cause I alraedy had all related libraries
installed.

However, the program sander.MPI isn't compiled- it is not installed. Is
there any thing that I am missing.

Thanks in advance for helping.
