Have a look at
http://www.mri.psu.edu/conferences/WIEN/ProgramFiles/WIEN2k-getting_started-07.pdf
(pages 29 and 30). And play yourself with a simple cubic lattice (P with
1 atom at 0,0,0) before going to more complicated cells.
The initialization is done in exactly the same way as for the regular
cell (only less k-points).
