Thanks, Justin
I'll test your program soon.

Today also I have some problems with generation of the posre for lipids

I have lipid bilayer in pdb. Then I selected one lipid molecule and move it
to  separate pdb and convert it to gro via editconf.
Than I've used genres and generate posre file for 1 lipid. Than I include
tis posre to topology of my bilayer
using gropt I obtain eror that I'm using wrong posre topology

Also I've tried to include posre.itp to my lipid.itp ( this file contain
link to posre on default) This run didnt produce any errors but as the
result posres have not been worked ( I obtained perturbed bilayer after
minimization)

How I can generate work posre for my bilayer to prevent perturbation after
equilibration or minimization ?
