R help - Oct 2006 - 64 bits machines

Hello,
I would like to know whether is possible to install R in a Itanium 64 
bits computer. We cannot neither compile source code because we have 
Intel compilers.
Specifically, we have an Intel Itanium II,  Linux Red Hat 64 bits and 
Intel  Fortran and C compilers: ifort, icc.

Thanks

Yes, we have an SGI Altix that is similar and R installs just fine. You 
should be able to compile
the source code with either the gnu or Intel compilers.

See  the R Installation and Administration manual at 
http://www.cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-admin.pdf,
and pay particular attention to the Platform notes section for tips on 
configuration for ia64 Linux.
