Use runsp_c_lapw to obtain the non-magnetic solution (or runfsm -m xxx 
when you want a low-moment FM state).

Defining just different starting configuration may or may not lead to a 
desired self-consistent solution. This depends on the particular system 
and the way the scf-cycle proceeds.

In order to define the Low spin , I modified the case.inst file so the up and down spin of Co d-orbitals are equal, also for the case of high spin I put the maximum number of unpaired electrons.
