 ## How do I copy a model installation directory instead of downloading from the forge ? ##
 
-In your workdir copy the target installation :

-[wiki:DocLfaq#HowdoIuseadifferentversionoflibIGCM? toto]
+In your workdir, copy the target installation:[[BR]]
+`cp -r OldInstall NewInstall`.
+
+You will need to regenerate the makefiles to account for the new path and recompile the executable (anyway you probably copied the installation to make modifications to the source).
+
+Clean the libraries and executables:[[BR]]
+in `NewInstall/modipsl/config/[YourConfig]` do a `gmake clean`.
+
+Generate the new makefiles:[[BR]]
+in `NewInstall/modipsl/util` do a `./ins_make`.
+
+Update your libIGCM installation:[[BR]]
+either install the latest version of libIGCM by following these [wiki:DocLfaq#HowdoIuseadifferentversionoflibIGCM explanations],[[BR]]
+or remove and regenerate the .job files in your libIGCM directory as follows.[[BR]]
+
+Do a `rm NewInstall/modipsl/libIGCM/*.job`.[[BR]]
+
+Prepare a new experiment as usual and launch `ins_job` to generate the `.job` files in your `libIGCM` directory and your experiment directory.[[BR]]
+Depending on your `libIGCM` version you will have to launch `NewInstall/modipsl/libIGCM/ins_job` or `NewInstall/modipsl/util/ins_job` for older versions.
+
+Check that the `.job` files are properly generated in `NewInstall/modipsl/libIGCM/` and you are set.
