-This page describes the installation of PALM on a Linux workstation (local host). There are two methods to install and run PALM. With the [#simple simple method], you can just run PALM interactively on the local computer. This method is using the scripts '''palm_simple_install''' and '''palm_simple_run'''. The simple method has several restrictions, e.g. it does not allow to create batch jobs and restart runs. Also file handling and most other features of the [#advanced advanced method] are not available. This method is only recommended for users who like to do a quick test of PALM.\\\\

 The [#advanced advanced method] is for running PALM in batch mode on a local or remote computer (batch jobs require a queueing system like NQS, PBS, or !LoadLeveler). The installation procedure is using the script '''mbuild'''. All jobs are started on the local host using the script '''mrun'''. If jobs are run on a remote host, the PALM output is automatically sent back to the local host. Alternatively, '''mrun''' can also be used to start PALM in interactive mode on the local host.\\\\
 Only the [#advanced advanced method] gives full access to all PALM features.\\\\
