Hi
How to construct and imply a 2x2x2 supercell for ibrav=2 i.e. cubic fcc
lattice of rock-salt NaCl type structure having space group 225.
also suggest how to get atomic position for it. My single unit cell input
file is as

&CONTROL
                 calculation = 'scf' ,
                restart_mode = 'from_scratch' ,
                      outdir = '/OUT PUT DIR' ,
                  pseudo_dir = '/TEMP' ,
                      prefix = 'ppppp' ,

 /
 &SYSTEM
                       ibrav = 2,
                   celldm(1) = 9.07124,
                         nat = 2,
                        ntyp = 2,
                     ecutwfc = 60.0 ,
                     ecutrho = 500.0 ,
                 space_group = 225 ,

 &ELECTRONS
                    conv_thr = 1.0d-8 ,
                 mixing_mode = 'plain' ,
