You can't continue the process because there is no process
running to continue.  You're doing essentially post-mortem
debugging, although you generated the core image in a different
way.  It's possible, but not easy, to continue *many* processes
from core images - it's not possible in general because of
considerations like open files.  There have been postings in
the past of programs to restart such images.
