[gmx-users] continuing the terminated simulation

mdrun -deffnm md_0_1
If the above crashed, do the following:
mdrun -s md_0_1.tpr -cpi md_0_1.cpt -deffnm md_0_2
This way, pre-crash files are called md_0_1 and post-crash file will be
named md_0_2[.cpt.gro.xtc.trr...]. The simulation will end when it reaches
the number of steps entered in the initial .tpr file which is md_0_1.tpr in
your case.
