[Users] Checkpoint and restore on 64 bit Debian host.

[Kirill Kolyshkin]

You don't have to switch the OS, just use rhel6 kernel. It is in rpm so for
now you have to use alien plus do some work after installing new kernel (run
mkinitd, modify grub.conf). We plan to provide deb report for rhel6 kernel
real soon.
