How to Compile VASP
General Resources
Installing VASP in the official VASP wiki. It describes the steps necessary to install the parallel version of VASP on Linux using the Intel Composer XE 12.1.3 and OpenMPI.
Check my compiler status list for which (other) Fortran compiler to use.
You can find my old comprehensive compile guide for VASP 4 here. It is getting dated, but may still contain relevant information.
