Hi all gromacs users

In Gromacs-4.0 manual it's said that we only need the check point file to 
continue the simulation.
I have a simulation with 16 threads at two nodes. I used the following command 
to run the simulation:

mpiexec -machinefile ./mf -np 12 mdrun -v -cpo dppc_md_1.cpt -cpt 60 -s 
dppc_md.tpr -o dppc_md.trr -x dppc_md.xtc -c dppc_md.gro -g dppc_md.log -e 
dppc_md.edr >& dppc_md.job &

but when I continue the simulation with 

mpiexec -machinefile ./mf -np 12 mdrun -v -cpi dppc_md_1.cpt -cpo dppc_md_2.cpt 
-cpt 60 -append -s dppc_md.tpr -o dppc_md.trr -x dppc_md.xtc -c dppc_md.gro -g 
dppc_md.log -e dppc_md.edr >& dppc_md.job &

The mdrun program stopped with "No previous checkpoint file present, assuming 
this is a new run."

I checked the files in the simulation directory, there is also a file called 
"dppc_md_1_prev.cpt".
So I try the file called "dppc_md_1_prev.cpt" with 

mpiexec -machinefile ./mf -np 12 mdrun -v -cpi dppc_md_1_prev.cpt -cpo 
dppc_md_2.cpt -cpt 60 -append -s dppc_md.tpr -o dppc_md.trr -x dppc_md.xtc -c 
dppc_md.gro -g dppc_md.log -e dppc_md.edr >& dppc_md.job &

I also got "No previous checkpoint file present, assuming this is a new run."   
So can someone tell me what's wrong with my method and how can I continue a 
simulation in Gromacs-4.0?

Appreciate any help in advance!
