Hi,

Yes, as you can see, the error message is refusing to append to files it
can't find, since appending is the default behaviour. If you continue with
mdrun -noappend then it will be fine. But you will now want to keep your
two sets of files separate and concatenate later with trjcat. Make a
backup, at least.

Mark
