You create a domain via virt-manager. Once installed it should be possible to save the state of a VM to disk, and restore it.
The domain appears to save correctly, and restores, but the host performs a fresh boot.
The same behaviour is seen when using virsh:
$ virsh save <name> <name>.save
$ virsh restore <name>.save
Please see attached video.

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
Is this a regression? That is, did this work as expected with a maverick or lucid host?
Can you reproduce this with an ubuntu (say natty) guest?
