If you initialize and do a calculation in /home/bruno/Wien2k/hpn_final, 
then "save_lapw -d hpn_final_converged", you should not do a calculation 
in the save_lapw subdirectory.

See the WIEN2k usersguide. You can "restore_lapw -d hpn_final_converged" 
and do further calculations in /home/bruno/Wien2k/hpn_final.
