the you should first take a course in how to generally compile software on linux
and how makefiles work and so on. you can lift some simple stuff off
this webpage,
but you _have_ to talk to some local linux and programming expert to get help
on the system specific basics.

trying to use a large package like lammps without knowing the basics of
the underlying operating system is like driving a car without brakes: sooner
or later you will hit something and will get "bruised".
