Dear James,

I was working for a longer time on ion placement within more or less equilibrated structures. I found my nearly magical miracle solving those problems in not using any gromacs tool for producing the input structure but rather use the free software Packmol:

http://www.ime.unicamp.br/~martinez/packmol/

The software solves a mathematical minimization problem instead of putting somewhere molecules and deleting others.

After a short energy minimization of the obtained output structure (a few 100 steps of steep algorithm) usally my systems work fine.

Best
Kathleen
