yes, it's the same with 2.4 and 2.6 domUs...

... but after some more testing I noticed another interessting thing. "xm
save" hangs if the suspend file doesn't exist. For the first time after a
dom0 reboot it's normaly no problem, but if I delete the file and try a "xm
save" again it will not work for 95%.
If I keep the save-file and then make a "xm save" and a "xm restore" it seems
to be no problem. I made 10 tests and all worked.
