    Running XP on a 2.0 iMac.

    Both times I have tried to "Suspend" the XP VM it has caused a system Reboot.

    Not a Kernel Panic but a shut down and reboot, something I have never experienced before with any OSX software.

    I have to say that the fact that the Virtual Machine can bring down the complete system is a bit unsettling to me.

    I don't mind experimenting with beta software but am not sure I want to continue since this type of shutdown can mess with every piece of software I have running in OSX at the time.

    I thought the problem seemed to be cured in Beta 6, but, no!

    I just tried a Suspend in XP in an iMac 2.0 and had the same immediate Reboot.

    No Kernel Panic but immediate shut down.

    Dangerous to my running OSX applications!

    Suspend causes reboot on OS X with Win98 guest too

    I just noticed the same problem for my Windows98 guest. It happened twice in a row. It's okay if I shut down Windows, though. Suspend causes the crash.

    I have a similar problem. I run 2 VM's at the same time (XP Pro). When I suspend one of them the other crashes immediatly. The suspend on the first seems to work fine though.
