Hi. I am currently running Lucid x86 (this was upgraded from Jaunty last May) on my Acer Extensa 4630Z in a dual boot config with Vista. I am still kind of new to linux, so the issue could be something simple (I have been using it for about a year now, but I don't use it on an every day basis) and my primary use of it is for programming. Long story short is I need to install MPICH2 for a project I am starting, but I'm having trouble installing it. The version I'm trying to install is 1.2.1. Here's the sequence of commands I enter:
wget -O /mpi2/mpich2-1.2.1.tar.gz http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/downloads/tarballs/1.2.1/mpich2-1.2.1.tar.gz
sudo tar zxv --file /mpi2/mpich2-1.2.1.tar.gz --directory /mpi2
cd /mpi2/mpich2-1.2.1
export CC=gcc
export CXX=g++
export F77=gfortran
export FC=gfortran
export F90=gfortran
export MPI2_PREFIX=/mpi2/mpich2-1.2.1/gcc
sudo ./configure --prefix=${MPI2_PREFIX} 2>&1 | sudo tee configure.log
sudo make 2>&1 | sudo tee make.log
sudo make install 2>&1 | sudo tee make.install.log
sudo make installcheck 2>&1 | sudo tee make.installcheck.logI get errors in the make installcheck, starting here:

(if you need a complete log, or any other info, just ask-I didn't want to post it if it wasn't necessary as its quite long).
Thank you for your time,
