[ncl-install] Cannot install NCL 5.2.0 binaries on RHEL 4 while 5.1.x did work before

[Christian Pagé]

Dear Mary,

Thanks for the effort in generating these binaries.

The very good news is that it does work! :-D

Meanwhile, we will try to update the system OS, but it is not sure yet that
it will be possible because we have some QLOGIC drivers (for a 12 Tb disk
bay)  that may not be compatible.

Best regards,

Christian
