<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi all,<BR>
<BR>
I'm trying to run the 3D Sedov explosion as a test for further use of Flash.<BR>
While doing this I encountered a problem: I can only run flash on 2^n cores.<BR>
When I choose a number of cores that is not 2^n I get the following errormessage:<BR>
<BR>
Error in mpi_amr_local_surr_blks_lkup : remote block 1 0 not located on pe 8 while processing blk 1 8<BR>
<BR>
Depending on how many cores I try to use, one or more of these errors appear.<BR>
<BR>
I already tried to set lrefine_min to a value that is >1, with this change the code stopps at the grid initialisiation with the line: "starting MORTON ORDERING".<BR>
With 16/32/64 cores the code runs without problems.<BR>
<BR>
Since our cluster has 120 cores I would really like to run on a number that is not 2^n to use the full potential.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for your help,<BR>
