It will always work - so the instructions need updating. something like:

Now to evaluate the computer systems you plan use - do:

Note: I remove the text 'It is useable with PETSC_DIR=/home/balay/tmp/petsc-install [and no more PETSC_ARCH].' as it
would be inconsistant at that point. I'm not sure if it can be added somewhere else.
