CFD Online Discussion Forums - Install openFOAM 1.6 on debian 32bit

Hi there!
First of all: I've read a lot of threads, tried a lot of solutions, but nothing helped.
I have installed openFOAM 1.6 according to the readme.html. Running the foamInstallationTest says:

Quote:

Base configuration ok.

The foam installation contains 2 critical error(s).

And scrolling to the errors:

Quote:

Third party software
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Software Version Location

gcc 4.3.3
WARNING: Conflicting installations:

WARNING: Conflicting installations:

current path :

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If I continue in the installation-(test)-process [copying tutorials, changing the directory..] I got until "blockMesh". There he says:

Quote:

bash: blockMesh: command not found.

What I have already done:
- Changing the link of \usr\bin\gcc to the openFoam-gcc according to the error-message

- Running the ./Allmake (no errors)

- Doing everything of the readme (bashrc, directories,..)

- Eating a lot of chocolate

- Saying my boss 20 times "It will work in a minute"

My Enviroment
Debian 5.0
i386

:confused: Please help me - Thank you
