Hi,

I am having a problem with installing Rmpi package on redhat linux machine.
The R I am using is version 2.10.1.  Here’s what happens.

  > install.packages( 'Rmpi' )

I think it is upset because the file mpi.h is missing.  Am I right?  If so,
How would I cure this problem?  And if not, what must I do?

Please help.  Thank you.
