Hello,
I am a beginner using Open MPI to set up a simple Beowulf cluster of PCs
for my Distributed Systems lab. My head node is my x86_64 architecture
Fedora 12 machine. The rest of my nodes are i386 Fedora 13 machines. I
understand that I need to compile Open MPI with CFLAGS=-m32 so that I can
use -m32 flag to create a 32 bit compatible binary. I could not do this
using yum install. So I am using the tarball for Open MPI 1.5.
my configure command is as follows -
./configure --prefix=/home/wolf/openmpi/ CFLAGS=-m32 CXXFLAGS=-m32
FFLAGS=-m32 FCFLAGS=-m32
This works fine. However, while doing make I get the following errors -
/usr/bin/ld: i386:x86-64 architecture of input file

Any idea as to how to go around fixing this? Any help would be greatly
regarded, since I'm supposed to meet a deadline, and half of my semester
has been spent trying to get either LAM-MPI or Open MPI (which I was
suggested I shift to) to work.
Thank you very much.

Saahil
