Dear Mark,

I used to put ten molecules of hexanol in a box 5 5 1 with the instruction "genbox -ci hexanol.gro -nmol 10 -box 5 5 1 -o layer.gro -p hexanol.top". However, now I want to fill up the box 4 4 4 with hexanol molecules. If I change the number 10 in the instruction to 1000 or 10000, it will run well but I do not know if this box is full.
Please help me to change this instruction.

It probably can't be full. genbox -ci does not generate a close packing, so the first part of your procedure isn't useful, as you would have learned from reading genbox -h. See http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Non-Water_Solvation for a sound workflow.

Thanks a lot.

        Dear,

        Thanks a lot for useful software. I am trying to generate a
        box (4 4 4) with full hexanol molecules inside. I have used
        the instruction "genbox -ci hexanol.GRO -box 4 4 4 -o
        layer.gro -p hexanol.top", however it has not been successful.


    Unfortunately we can't help if we don't know what is in your -ci
    box (also, it's probably best not to use capitalized filename
    extensions), or why you think the procedure was not successful.
    Please consider the advice here http://www.gromacs.org/Support.
