- /opt/intel_fc_i386 points at the most recent 32-bit Fortran compiler

I want it now...
- If you've tested your applications and are ready to have CSG load RH5 on your workstation now, please open a ticket in the request system and we'll reload your machine.
CSG will have to format your drive to load RH5. Please move any personnal files from /tmp, /var/tmp, or /var/scratch back to your home directory as these local file systems are NOT backed up!
