runfsm_lapw does not have support for   -min

So you need to change manually "TOT" to "FOR" in case.in2 and "MSR1" to 
"MSR1a" in case.inm. In addition create case.inM yourself (x pairhess 
-copy). and use -i 999

The runfsm script will also not switch back to MSR1 mode when forces are 
small, so eventually you have to stop manually (touch .stop).
