Starting with version 2.3, Bochs has limited save/restore support. The state of
cpu(s), memory and all devices can be saved now. When running Bochs with there
will be a button in the header bar called "Suspend". Depending on config interface
and gui there will be a prompt where you can enter a path or a gui folder
selection dialog box. It is possible to save the state at any time, but we
recommend to do it when the simulation is idle. After pressing OK/Enter, Bochs
will save a set of files into the selected folder. The state of hard disk images
is not handled yet, so Bochs will ask you if you want to continue after saving
state. We don't recommend to continue unless you are running a read-only guest
system (e.g. Live-CD).
