Oo.. I'm so sorry for I'm not aware of this. But I'm really new to linux environment and don't really have a good mastering skill on the commandline that it works with. As you said that I'm not given the permission to write in that directory, sudo was the only thing that I can think of out from my knowledge. I don't really know how to do my work at the subdirectory of my hoe directory.

OK. Just to prove I'm not an ornery old crank, here's a URL pointing out just some of the pitfalls of working as superuser... http://www.control-escape.com/linux/lx-postinstall.html#user

In UNIX as in any field, the "Good Things To Do" are written in the blood and time of people who thought the above didn't apply to them! :-)

And does the meaning of "adjust your environment variables to give you ready access to GROMACS stuff by using "source /path/to/GMXRC" using the path in which you installed the GROMACS binaries" requires me to make some changes in the source code or just by typing "source /path/to/GMXRC" at the terminal would have open the access for me in the directory?

The latter. See http://wiki.gromacs.org/index.php/Installation#Getting_access_to_GROMACS_after_installation

I'm sorry for my ignorance... I think I would better get some books on linux environment and read on it first.

Great idea. Start with a web search - there's heaps of free UNIX tutorial material. Also, do some GROMACS tutorial material you can find on the web. These will give you more of a handle on how GROMACS things get done.

Good luck!

Mark
