SG -- My file system is currently mounted from MMC.
          Suspend to RAM seems to have bug with MMC.
           (http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/OMAP-L1_Linux_Drivers_Usage#Suspend-to-RAM)
          I had tried NFS earlier, but I think there is some problem with 
NFS boot and udev with this kernel.
           So, currently I will not be able to do it, but will try if I get 
a chance.
