Hi Michael,

The confirmed (known-good) way to build MITgcm on MacOS X is described
at:

http://dev.mitgcm.org/pipermail/mitgcm-support/2003-November/001832.html


Recent changes (as of yesterday) to genmake2 should allow MITgcm to
build on Mac's native (default) HFS+ file system and should therefore
remove the annoying dependence on UFS Volumes or partitions described in
the above notes.  But I want to caution you that I don't have a Mac and
won't have access to one for at least a few days so I have not yet had a
chance to test it.

So if you're willing to spend some time testing, that'd be fine.  Please
send any bugs you encounter to this list and I'll do what I can to fix
them.

Good luck with your Mac!

Ed
