Thanks, the hack_back script works great! Another follow up question, can we resume checkpoints with different disk images? I guess this one is trickier, but if the boot related files are not changed, this should work right, since all architectural state is the same then. I have tried this and it seems to be working, but I want to be sure I don't run into issues because of this.
