Download

from http://www.open-mpi.org/software/ompi/v1.6/
get the tar.gz file

Install

Assume that the downloaded file is in your ~/Downloads directory
Just follow the directions in the INSTALL file, which are summarized below. The installation was done on *my* machine, and assumes the user is thiebaut. Change and plug-in your own user name.

cd
mkdir mpi
mkdir mpi/download
cd mpi/download
mv ../Downloads/openmpi-1.6.5.tar.gz .
tar -xzvf openmpi-1.6.5.tar.gz 
cd openmpi-1.6.5
./configure --prefix=/Users/thiebaut/mpi/    (replace thiebaut by your user name on your Mac)

The last command will take 10 minutes or so. When it is done, make all and install

make all install

This last command takes a while as well...
