Here is the input file from the problematic one:
mdin_min_s1_v0_l1_dna: (charge removal)
 &cntrl
  imin = 1,	ntx = 1,
  maxcyc = 500,
  ntpr = 100,
  ntf = 2,      ntc = 2,
  ntb = 1,	cut = 12.0,
  icfe = 1,	clambda = 0.1,
  ifsc=0,
  crgmask='',
 &end
mdin_min_s3_v0_l1_dna: (adding charge)
density minlibration
 &cntrl
  imin = 1,	ntx = 1,
  maxcyc = 500,
  ntpr = 100,
  ntf = 2,      ntc = 1,
  ntb = 1,	cut = 12.0,
  icfe = 1,	clambda = 0.1,
  ifsc=0,
  crgmask=':1,10,11,20',
 &end
I use ntc=1 because with ntc=2 i got this error-message:
    Coordinate resetting (SHAKE) cannot be accomplished,
     deviation is too large
     NITER, NIT, LL, I and J are :      0      2    110    301    303
     Note: This is usually a symptom of some deeper
     problem with the energetics of the system.
  *** Especially for minimization, try ntc=1 (no shake)
Here the input-files from which went ok:
mdin_min_s1_v0_l2_dna: (charge removal)
density minlibration
 &cntrl
  imin = 1,	ntx = 1,
  maxcyc = 500,
  ntpr = 100,
  ntf = 2,      ntc = 2,
  ntb = 1,	cut = 12.0,
  icfe = 1,	clambda = 0.2,
  ifsc=0,
  crgmask='',
 &end
mdin_min_s3_v0_l2_dna: (adding charge)
density minlibration
 &cntrl
  imin = 1,	ntx = 1,
  maxcyc = 500,
  ntpr = 100,
  ntf = 2,      ntc = 2,
  ntb = 1,	cut = 12.0,
  icfe = 1,	clambda = 0.2,
  ifsc=0,
  crgmask=':1,10,11,20',
 &end
So in principal it is the same.
