Tru,
    FwIw, I drug another drive out of the junquebox and installed the 
32-bit version of Centos, and did a compile of the ncar graphics.  Works 
like a champ.  Sure wish it would under the 64-bit version so I don't 
have to move everything over from one to another! 
    While I'm on the subject of drives, is there a way to mount another 
drive that has the 64-bit ver. installed on it, without trashing stuff 
-- aside from mounting r.o., how would I go about that?
Thanks..
Sam
