1. Create a box.
2. Add the first liquid as usually (using genbox).
3. Equilibrate a system.
4. Enlarge your box in certain direction, i.e. manually change the side
length in GRO file.
5. Add the second liquid (using genbox). To ensure that molecules of the
second type are unable to fit to the voids between the molecules of the
first type, you may somewhat enlarge VDW radius for certain site of molecule
# 2 in the "vdwradii.dat" file.
6. Freeze molecules # 1 and equilibrate the subsystem with molecules # 2.
