trouble installing sage

[Roy Joshua]

Hi,

I have a Dell 980 optiplex machine with i7 processor (8 core), 16GB RAM.
I tried to install sage on it with OS: Centos 5.5.

I tried both versions sage-4.6.2 and sage-4.5.2 and both crashed.

It seems the problem is only with ATLAS, whatever that is:
What follows is a dump of what I got on the screen, but only the last part
of it.

Hope you can help me fix the problem. Incidentally this installed on the
same machine running
Fedora 14, but Fedora 14 has some other issues so that it crashes when I run
my program written in
sage. I have installed sage successfully on another computer running Centos
5.5, but that is a slower
laptop. So I really would like to first install sage on this computer
running Centos 5.5 and then I think
I will be able to run my sage package on it.

Thanks in advance,
Roy Joshua

In instalatiopn guide you can find:
SAGE_ATLAS_LIB - if you have an installation of ATLAS on your system
and you want Sage to use it instead of building and installing its own
version of ATLAS, set this variable to be the parent directory of your
ATLAS installation: it should have a subdirectory lib containing the
files libatlas.so, liblapack.so, libcblas.so, and libf77blas.so, and
it should have a subdirectory include/atlas/ containing header files.

It helped me on i5-661, fedora12
You can use ATLAS version from your distribution

That's an impressive machine. Clearly not an old relic.

Is this a 32-bit version of Linux? This is building 32-bit, which is not what
you want on a new high-spec machine.

You could try setting

SAGE64=yes
export SAGE64

and it might force Sage to build 64-bit, as ATLAS at least is building 32-bit on
your machine.
