The idea behind Justin's original solution is still right. You need to
provide two sets of corresponding atoms and those sets have to have the
same size. So you need to construct two index groups that suit what you
actually want to compare - say, the backbone atoms that are common to
the two forms. That will require some thought, and playing around with
make_ndx (or a text editor). Then use those to create subset .tpr and
trajectory files as Justin suggested. Each form is likely to need its
own customized index group to make the subset that is correct for it.
