Dear gmx-users,
  I have created a bigger lipid bilayer with genconf.
genconf -f popc128a.pdb -nbox 2 2 1 -dist 0 0 0 -o popc.pdb

And this bilayer is as big as four times of former bilayer.After doing that, I have run minimization for this big bilayer with cut-off for long distance electrostatic.

After minimizing my big bilayer,I tried to run NPT, but the system told me this:
Using Gromacs SSE single precision assembly innerloops.

Any comments are recommended. Thanks a lot.
