As I explained here before, I get an error ( some interactions seem to be 
assigned multiple times). I suspected the top file, so checked it  and 
visualized the output of em.mdp; the output seems to be correct and I don't see 
any bonds behaves strangely. 
As I studied in mailing lists it and you also mentioned , this may happen 
because of the insufficient minimization. I'm wondering how a good and 
sufficient minimization  is provided? 



Sincerely,
Shima

This question is very vague.  In principle, any system can be minimized but the 
definition of "sufficient" depends on your goals.
