[FLASH-USERS] restart PM run in UG mode

Dear FLASH developers/users,

Just a quick question, as I can't find the answer in the manual or 
mailing list archive;

Is it possible to restart an AMR simulation in UG mode with a checkpoint 
file created in PM mode? Or does it involve starting a new run and 
reading in the initial conditions from the checkpoint file manually.

I can imagine this being a scenario commonly required when the flow in a 
simulation (especially in 3D) becomes more complex and fills larger 
portions of the domain; at some point most of the domain is maximally 
refined and the overhead in AMR exceeds the advantages of using AMR.

Many thanks,
Alex
