We discuss the problem of solving large linear systems of equations that arise in lattice systems with disorder. Three examples of this kind of problem are (i) computing currents in a random-resistor network, (ii) computing the fermion (quark) propagator in lattice quantum chromodynamics, and (iii) the discrete Schr\"odinger operator with a random potential (the Anderson model of localization). We show that the algebraic multigrid is a very effective way to compute currents in a random-resistor network. It is likely that similar techniques will apply to the other problems.
