[R] Help with makeClusters for Snow

[SVM]

Hi, 

Would it help if I was to install Ubuntu, and try loading it there? I've
seen quite a few comments about running rmpi on Linux, through google
search. 

Do you know if I have to install any specific packages/libraries before
trying to install RMpi?
I was recommended to install LAM 7.1 before proceeding with its
installation. Do you know if that is correct? 

Thanks for all your help. 

Steve
