[gmx-users] FCC cell

Dear David
I did just as you and Mark Abraham had suggested. I
have made the unit cell using another software and I am
already to use PBC. However a doubt appeared. As there are 840 atoms
in the unit cell (is a fullerene crystal), how can I generate the top file?
Must I make an file top with all these atoms and its parameters (of
potential and geometric)?
Or there is another way to make it, using for example, only a site of
the lattice
(in this case a C60 fullerene)?
Thank you
eef

No, you'll have to provide starting coordinates yourself. However once
you have a unitcell you can multiply it using genconf.
