    Jack,
    
    As Sergio said, the error you see comes when the kernel modules are not 
    loaded.
    Also as Sergio said, you will need to "cr_run" an application or you 
    will get an error about "Checkpoint failed: support missing from 
    application".
    Finally, BLCR does not do anything to save the state of network 
    connections or the contents of files on disk.  So, there is a very real 
    possibility that if you do checkpoint apache it might not be usable when 
    restarted.
