Dear Suresh,

  Adding to the comment of Isaiah, did you check the FAQ?
http://www.quantum-espresso.org/faq/phonons/#7.3

    Greetings,

       apsi

PS Why running in serial...? I guess basically any CPU nowadays has at least two cores.

Dear Suresh,
I doubt if there is any way you can know if you'll have negative frequency 
while the calculation is on.
However you can take note of some of the information in phonon user's guide on 
how to avoid negative frequency.

Also, you can do a test run with a single q-point splitted among irreps in 
order to save your time and computational resources.
Check example on how to split phonon calculation in case you are not familiar 
with that.

All the best,
Isaiah.

      Dear All,
             I am ran phonon calculation for anatase previously and got 
negative frequencies. I was install QE-5.2.0 in serial mode and
took days to finish the calculation in my desktop.

Is there any way to know the negative frequency before the calculation ends? So 
that the time can be saved.
                                 Thank You
