Dear all,

I am having some problem in running regcm.x in SGI (Irix) machine. I deleted some comments that had been given for SGI machine in terrain.f (was that necessary to delete ??). Terrain and icbc goes well, but regcm.x gives following errors. Can anyone help me to find out the correction for this ?

...........................

...........................

f90 -O -c zengocn.F

f90 -O -c zenith.F

f90 -O -c zenitm.F

f90 -o regcm -64 -g -trapuv aermix.o aeroppt.o aerout.o albedov.o balanc.o balbak.o

........................................

zenith.o zenitm.o

ld64: FATAL 12 : Expecting n64 objects: aermix.o is n32.

*** Error code 2 (bu21)

../Main/regcm - No such file or directory

./regcm - Command not found
