ok.  that should be enough to get things going.  i’m going to turn you over to the mesa-users at this point.   if that runs into a stone wall, then i’ll be happy to help when other options have been explored.

Most of the inlists are just to slowly change the star until its more planet-like, and inlist_evolve is the only one where the subroutines are turned on. I'm working in mesa-r8845, and to reproduce the error just open the folder in terminal and use ./Run . This executes ./clean, ./mk, and the run_S.py file that I've been using to run a suite of planets (although right now its only set up for one planet).
