[gmx-users] How to generate intermediates for alchemy mutation

[Mark Abraham]

Hi,

The usual way is to build a topology whose A and B states are the mutated
forms, and you then equilibrate the system separately at each lambda point
interpolating between them. You "simply" need a starting configuration with
a plausible geometry for each such point.
