What I want is to  run  gromacs  on a signle  machine with multiple
processors.

In "A.5 Running GROMACS in parallel"
"If you have a single machine with multiple processors you don't have to use
the mpirun command,
but you can do with an extra option to mdrun:
% mdrun -np 8 -s topol -v -N 8
In this example MPI reads the first option from the command line. Since
mdrun also wants to
know the number of processes you have to type it twice."
