Joel
   Thanks for the reply. But I have a question about this script. According
to its comment:

when run in M5, it creates
<http://grok.gem5.org/xref/gem5/configs/boot/hack_back_ckpt.rcS#5>a
checkpoint after Linux boot up, but
before any benchmarks have been run.

However, I want to create a checkpoint after a benchmark is run
for some time, then call some "/sbin/m5 cmd" and continue the
same benchmark's execution.
Should this script work for my purpose or some change is needed?

Thanks

Hui
