OF Installation for Swak4foam + Linux Newbie
Im trying to install Openfoam and Swak4foam on Lubuntu so that I can run simulations of my F1 car for the Khamsin Virtual Racecar Challenge, problem is Im new to Linux so most stuff goes straight over my head.
I have been following the guide at - http://www.tfd.chalmers.se/~hani/kur...OwnLaptop.html I have got to the part of the guide that says: Quote:

BTW: use CODE instead of QUOTE for output in your postings |
Had a change of plan, decided to go exactly as the guide says in the link I posted in the OP so have an Ubuntu 12.04 LTS install and have got further through the guide than before.
The guide now says to do the following: Code:
Test the installation: Code:
richard@laptop:~/OpenFOAM/richard-2.2.x/run$ cp –r $FOAM_TUTORIALS/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity . |

Greetings to all!
Just a quick drive-by to point out a very particular detail... better explained on this Wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyphen-minus
Code:
cp –r $FOAM_TUTORIALS/incompressible/icoFoam/cavity . Best regards, Bruno PS: It gets worse: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dash |
Thank you!
I was copying and pasting into the Terminal so was assuming the guide had everything written correctly, obviously this wasnt the case! Really appreciate the help. |

Ok, so I now have OpenFOAM installed :cool:
Now to Swak4foam. This I have zero idea of. Is there a noobs install guide? |
Just had an attempt at this and here is what I got:
Code:
richard@laptop:~$ cd /home/richard/OpenFOAM/ThirdParty-2.2.x/ |

No idea, I'm a complete Linux newbie.
How would I go about doing that? |
