Lapack and BLAS on BBB

[Jacob Stockton]

Hello,

I need help installing LAPACK and BLAS on the BBB when using the Angstrom distro. On Ubuntu it was really easy. I just installed using sudo apt-get install liblapack-dev. But installing using just the lapack files has been difficult, mostly because I am not that experienced when it comes to embedded linux. It seems the primary issue may be that I don't have the gfortran package. After following the guide here, I get the error 'make: gfortran: Command not found'.

I have tried installing gfortran using the command: opkg install gfortran. However, it seems the package does not exist. Any ideas? Is there another fortran compiler out there?

Thanks,

Jacob Stockton

Anybody?

I know nothing about Lapack and BLAS, but if installation was really
easy under Ubuntu, and you're apparently familiar with Ubuntu, why not
just run Ubuntu on the BeagleBone?
