Hi Delara,

To continue a crashed simulation you just need to type in the following
command without deffnm md.

mdrun -s md_0_1.tpr -cpi md_0_1.cpt

You can check the link here:
http://www.gromacs.org/Documentation/How-tos/Doing_Restarts

The continuation is down via the .cpt file. the _prev.cpt is just a backup
copy and you need only .cpt file to begin the crashed run.
The difference is explained here:

Cheers,

Ankita
