 INMOST requires ParMETIS version 4.0 or higher.
 
-If you have installed ParMETIS yourself then just provide `PARMETIS_DIR` option to CMake configure script.
+To install ParMETIS yourself, download version 4.03 from [http://glaros.dtc.umn.edu/gkhome/metis/parmetis/download](http://glaros.dtc.umn.edu/gkhome/metis/parmetis/download).
+
+You can do it using the following command:
+
+```
+wget http://glaros.dtc.umn.edu/gkhome/fetch/sw/parmetis/parmetis-4.0.3.tar.gz
+```
+
+Unpack the package with the command
+
+```
+tar -xzf parmetis-4.0.3.tar.gz
+```
+
+Open `parmetis-4.0.3/CMakeLists.txt` file for edit and replace following two lines:
+
+```
+set(GKLIB_PATH METIS/GKlib CACHE PATH "path to GKlib")
+set(METIS_PATH METIS/metis CACHE PATH "path to METIS")
+```
+
+With three following lines:
+
+```
+find_package(MPI)
+set(GKLIB_PATH ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/metis/GKlib CACHE PATH "path to GKlib")
+set(METIS_PATH ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/metis CACHE PATH "path to METIS")
+```
+
+Now cmake would be able to correctly recognize all the paths and to automatically find the MPI library.
+
+Create the `parmetis-build` directory and run the following commands from it:
+
+```
+cmake ../parmetis-4.0.3/. && make
+```
+
+Once you have compiled ParMETIS, provide `PARMETIS_DIR` option to CMake configure script.
+
+Install ParMETIS with PETSc
+======
 
 We recommend, that you compile ParMETIS using PETSc installer, refer to [[PETSc installation guide|0403-Compilation-PETSc-Linux]] for detail information.
 When you start `configure` script just add `--download-metis --download-parmetis` like this:
