Re: [AMBER] Generating a solvent Box from organic solvent

You could try building your own box by making a copy of your
acetic acid molecule, solvating it with the original residue,
then equilibrating the box before using it to solvate other molecules.

E.g.

> x = copy ACX
> solvatebox x ACX 20 # larger than your expected box
> saveamberparm ...

 ...equilibrate...convert to pdb...

> ACXBOX = loadpdb ...
> solvatebox mymol ACXBOX 10
