Hi Klaus,
Thank you for your suggestions.
I checked my EOS file which I have attached here. The data (species #2) looks just fine but I am still getting the same error right during driver initialization. I have tried reducing the time step and tried to tune couple more runtime params but the error persists. It's just hard to know at this point what's causing this error.
I would really appreciate your help,
Thanks,
Nitish

FLASH should generate a file EOS_printout_tables.txt when it starts up.
The first thing I would do is carefully check that file:
* Do all the data make sense?
* Are all values positive that physically should be positive
(energies, pressures)?
* Are all pressures and energies monotonically increasing with increasing
temperature?
* You should have a nonzero Z(T,density) function (shown under the
heading IONIZATION DATA in the printout file); it should be constant
if your EOS table file is meant to exactly represent a (3T) Gamma Eos.
