Sorry if what I said was confusing, but my idea is that in order to avoid
problems, it should be better not to touch the disk image between a suspend
and a resume. If you want to do so, fine, but I strongly suggest you to
reboot the guest operating system, in this case, just like you normally
would with a real computer. IMHO, mounting a partition while accessing it
with another program, like you just said you did with VMWare, isn't a good
idea at all, and falls back to the "unsupported" category. As soon as an
operating system has any caching mechanism, you screw up everything, this way.
The bottom line is: "If you want to change anything from outside the guest,
then turn off the guest first, or be prepared for bad things to happen."
