In this section we are going to go through the process of compiling a basic version of Kratos Multiphysics under linux environments. Specifically, we explain how to compile in Ubuntu 14.04 LTS, with the latest checked libraries. A basic knowledge of Linux is assumed ( execute commands, create directories, etc...)
