I want to build an index with a geneses I have. Kallisto index errors out.

[lcamVz]

I am running kallisto index and I am getting an error what this could be:

line 27: 1493676 Illegal instruction (core dumped) kallisto index -i genes.99.idx genes.99.fasta

I want to take my genes from a metagenome to build the index to see if I can run metakallisto is the logic works or am I missing something.

Either your FASTA file is corrupted or you need to re-install kallisto (from source)

I reinstalled from source and added the flags and it worked.
