Hi,
has anyone managed to install OCaml+OPAM on a IBM BlueGenemachine?



- When I try to compile the OCaml compiler with gcc, I get a Makefile
error related to a missing none.o file.

- To install OPAM, I do the following:

|wget https://raw.github.com/ocaml/opam/master/shell/opam_installer.sh -O - | sh -s /usr/local/bin/

but OPAM tells me it does not have a binary distribution for my architecture (ppc64)

- I tried to compile the code into bytecode on an Intel machine and copy it to the BlueGene, but the ocamlrun ppc won't
execute the bytecode generated for Intel. Is there an endianness incompatibility in the bytecodes?



I don't know what else I can do to make my code run on a BlueGene machine (Mira at Argonne), and I am trying to convince people
that HPC is not only limited to Fortran or C/C++ using MPI and OpenMP :-(

Help !!!


Anthony
