Hi all Thanks for your support! And yes, the build worked.
Tried Dima's suggestions to cut down compute time (a) SAGE_ATLAS_ARCH=CoreI7,SSE3,SSE2,SSE1... unfortunately rejected?? (b) Tried Loading Ubuntu Atlas package. Couldnt find one. (c) Tried Installation manual trick for Ubuntu installs. Alas xdvi has been withdrawn from Ubuntu archives. So build included Atlas performance program running... Time 3 hours 35 minutes. No of lines in install.log = 306028 Passes tests suggested in installation guide. Build fine under shorter test routine. No serious errors in subsidiary logs. (Some one has put a lot of time in here.) Though GAP was preinstalled, the build ignored the installation and generated its own (bare) version. I will try and link to the usual version. How do save the Atlas performance stats so that others might use them? How might I add packages to Sage like ImageMagick? Just install them?
