[Pw_forum] input structure for ibrav=9

[Éric Germaneau]

Hey Amin,

it seems to ma that when you set ibrav you have to set celldm variables 
as well.
In you case, try to not use A,B,C, ... but rather to set celldm(1) to 
the value of A (in Bohr!!), celldm(2) and celldm(3) to b/a and c/a 
respectively.
Hope it helps,

              Éric.
