Your problem is not clear for me (there is 'ferrimagnetic' in the 
subject line, but only 'ferromagnetic' in the body of the mail...?) 
Assuming you indeed ask about a ferrimagnetic setup: indeed, this cannot 
be done with the AFM setup. Use the method described in the FAQ ( 
http://www.wien2k.at/reg_user/faq/afm.html , steps 1-4). If the system 
really want to become ferrimagnetic, then the size of the moments at the 
end of the scf cycle will turn out to be different.
