Thank you for the reply!

hmm mdrun_mpi does not appear in the list of executables in
/usr/local/gromacs/bin (and well therefore not in /usr/local/bin).

Which set of installation commands that I used should have compiled the
mdrun_mpi executable? And how should I go about getting the mdrun_mpi
executable at this point?

Justin
