Hi Robin,
I'm not really sure what you have configured for lightcone_01, and how the log-file of the run looks like before the crash happened... I would have to look at the full log-file to better understand what happened here.
One potential possibility for the crash is that one of your HDF5 files contains more than 2 billion particles. For HDF5 files this is in principle permissable (but not for formats 1 and 2). However, the code still contained a small 32bit overflow issue in the I/O routine preventing this in practice. This is fixed in the newest version.
Cheers,
Volker

The second set of files (lightcone_01) are created and contain particle data (I assume, as they are > 8 x 32 Gbytes in size). However, they are corrupted in that h5dump is unable to parse them, so I presume that the crash occurs whilst writing to these files.
