In my point of view, "-orb" is needed after using the option "-orbc".
After freezing the orbital potential corresponding to a
given density matrix, you should check that this solution is "stable".

You didn't understood me. In your first email you mentionned that you
have started the two types of GGA+U calculations based on GGA calculations.
I was proposing you another strategy (the simplest one when it works -
avoiding to invert the density matrix). It simply consists to initialize
your calculation, then invert the magnetic moments in case.inst and
directly start GGA+U (without a GGA calculation step).
In many cases, such a simple approach allows to stabilize the magnetic
state you want.
