Thank you, I have been to that page probably a good 100 times by now.
Was the 'No.' response with regards to my primary question? Or to the one
within the parentheses?
The "no" was in response to the parenthetical. The "make" command does not take
an argument like --program-suffix=_mpi; it is specific to the configure script.
See ./configure --help for a complete list.
Suppose I remove my existing installation and reinstall, I am hoping to
figure out when/where exactly should I specify --program-suffix=_mpi so as to
not overwrite the pre-existing serial mdrun as I have mistakenly done so with
my current installation.
/./configure --enable-mpi --program-suffix=_mpi //make mdrun //make
install-mdrun //make links/
Lastly, if the above set of commands are incorrect, or will not carry out
what I intend (to build a separate mdrun_mpi executable apart from the
existing mdrun after a normal build), I am kindly requesting for a suitable
revision.
Those commands are correct. I will work on clarifying the online help
information.

Thanks, Justin
