[gmx-users] Installing GROMACS under OS X 10.2

[Christopher Yip]

Hi all

I'm trying to install GROMACS 3.1.4 on a clean install of OS X 
10.2... and I ran into this error..

Any ideas?  BTW - noticed that bash appears to be the native shell 
for OS X (so the  /bin/sh works where as before you had to download 
bash to run as /bin/bash ...etc..)



Thanks
Chris
