[gmx-users] Using the checkpoint file to restore corrupt trajectory.

I guess, the more important question is whether the checkpoint file stores
the previous checkpoints as well. If it stores only the last checkpoint at
20 ns, then I guess there is no way to rerun from 18 ns.

I do not store a .trr because of space constraints and hence I do not have
the velocities. otherwise, I would have used the snapshot from 18ns and
extended the simulation. Now, it looks like I will have to re-generate the
velocities and re-equilibrate the system.
