Sorry, since I'm new to this forum, I don't know where should I ask this 
question.

Firstly, thanks to all that help me figure out how to suspend the solaris on my 
laptop. It's so fast to suspend it. I am wondering now, why XP suspends itself 
so slow and write so lot of things to the disk. I saw my disk keeps on writing 
when suspend XP and I don't know what it writes.

Secondly, about VirtualBox.
I am reading the book "The Unix Programming Environment" written by Kernighan 
and Pike 24 years ago. Most of its content are dated, but still it's a very 
nice reading. In order to practice some examples, I decided to run a Minix 3 in 
VirtualBox, because Minix has a more similar internal system calls like the one 
described in the book. 

Now my problem is: I can't even shutdown Minix. It keeps on rebooting after 
shutdown. I don't know if it is my mistake in configuring VirtualBox or it's 
the problem inside Minix and VirtualBox.
