All the information you need are in the above pages.  You may want to do some 
simple tutorial material on known species before diving into something that 
requires detailed knowledge of Gromacs file formats and topology organization. 
There is basically a how-to at http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Polymers

You'll encounter the same problem in just about every software you use.  If 
you're using a molecule that is unknown to the force field, you're going to have 
to modify force field and/or topology files in some way.
