+== Intall mpich2 ==
+=== 1. Testbed Introduction ===
+ * VMware Workstation 5.0
+ * Create three nodes, client-01 ~ client-03, all with 5GB HD and 128MB memory.
+ * The OS on these 3 nodes is Ubuntu-7.10-server
+ * hostname and IP are:
+  * client-01 192.168.180.131
+  * client-02 192.168.180.132
+  * client-03 192.168.180.133
+=== 2. Getting Start to intall mpich2 ===
+ * '''Step 1''' : Modify /etc/hosts
+  * Assume that we got 3 machines in our testbed, now we have to edit /etc/hosts on each node.[[BR]]
+    Here is the example of client-01. So does the other two nodes.
+{{{
+root@client-01:~# cat > /etc/hosts << "EOF"
+> 127.0.0.1 localhost
+> 192.168.180.131 client-01
+> 192.168.180.132 client-02
+> 192.168.180.133 client-03

+root@client-01:~# cat /etc/hosts
+127.0.0.1 localhost
+192.168.180.131 client-01
+192.168.180.132 client-02
+192.168.180.133 client-03
+}}}
+  * Notice that if there is __127.0.0.1 client-01__ in /etc/hosts, it must be deleted.
+
+ * '''Step 2''' : Download and Install mpich2
+  * We use mpcich2-1.0.7rc1 for example.
+{{{
+root@client-01:~# wget http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/downloads/tarballs/mpich2-1.0.7rc1.tar.gz
+root@client-01:~# sudo tar -zxvf mpich2-1.0.7rc1.tar.gz
+cd mpich2-1.0.7rc1/
+}}}
+  * You could choose the install location as you wish, but all the nodes must have the same install location!! [[BR]]
+    We use ''/opt/mpich2'' here for example.
+{{{
+root@client-01:~/mpich2-1.0.7rc1# ./configure preifx=/opt/mpich2
+}}}
+   * If there are errors when configuring mpich2, you may need some packages or libraries such as c/c++ compiler.[[BR]]
+     Try this :
+{{{
+root@client-01:~/mpich2-1.0.7rc1# apt-get install build-essential
+}}}
+  * compile and install
+{{{
+root@client-01:~/mpich2-1.0.7rc1# make
+root@client-01:~/mpich2-1.0.7rc1# make install
+}}}
