[Wien] AFM initialization

Search the UG for all places where the string 'afm' appears, and read 
those sections carefully (not at least Sec. 4.5.4). You might have a 
look at the FAQ as well (http://www.wien2k.at/reg_user/faq/afm.html). 
Then reconsider whether what you did was right.

For your other question, ponder what it means to break the chemical 
(crystallographic) symmetry by magnetism (FM or AFM). There might be 
hints in another FAQ entry as well 
(http://www.wien2k.at/reg_user/faq/supercells.html).
