If you are new to command line you should download the pre-compiled binary version from this location: http://sourceforge.net/projects/soap...ovo2/bin/r240/. That would allow you to run it immediately once you untar the archive.

hi genomax sir,

as u suggested i tried to install with this http://sourceforge.net/projects/soap...ovo2/bin/r240/ but still i didnt install it due to following error.

/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.1.0/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: un recognized option '--hash-style=both'
/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.1.0/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld: use the --help option for usage information
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [SOAPdenovo-63mer] Error 1

I am using suse linux 10 vertion and having old vertions of gnu,glibc and binutils.
is old vertions are the reason for the above problem.
how to solve this problem.

If you had downloaded the precompiled linux binary they you would not need to "install/make" the program. I think you downloaded the file that has the word "src" in the file name.

Instead download this file: http://sourceforge.net/projects/soap...0.tgz/download
