+The general checkout and build instructions for the Heracles version of the model may be found here:
-The GEOS-5 (AGCM) source code checks out at about 55 MB of space.  Once compiled, the complete package is about 1.3 GB.  Your home space on '''discover''' may not be sufficient for checking out and building the code.  You should consider either 1) requesting a larger quota in your home space (call the tag x6-9120 and ask, telling them you are doing GEOS-5 development work) or 2) building in your (larger) nobackup space (recommended).  But consider, ''nobackup'' is not backed up.  So be careful...
-One strategy I like is to check the code out to my ''nobackup'' space, but then make symlink from him home space back to that.  For example, if I have my code stored at $NOBACKUP/GEOSagcm, I would make a symlink in my home space to point to that like:
- % ln -s $NOBACKUP/GEOSagcm GEOSagcm
