We discuss the need for discretization to evaluate the configurationalentropy in a general model. We also discuss the prescription using restrictedpartition function formalism to study the stationary limit of metastablestates. We introduce a lattice model of dimers as a paradigm of molecular fluidand study metastability in it to investigate the root cause of glassy behavior.We demonstrate the existence of the entropy crisis in metastable states, fromwhich it follows that the entropy crisis is the root cause underlying the idealglass transition in systems with particles of all sizes. The orientationalinteractions in the model control the nature of the liquid-liquid transitionobserved in recent years in molecular glasses.Comment: 36 pages, 9 figure
