Same directory is not the problem. Have tested both snapsots, run the 
one, and installed the other, back to the other and runs. No problems.

In very old mails found, that an old swap between different kernel 
versions does an problem and reboots/crashed the host some times. I 
never seen such problem, and I have also a swap partition (from native 
Linux). The solving was, to renew the swap partition with mkswap before 
using in new kernel. I tend to use a file as swap for coLinux - this is 
also faster, as a partition.
If you have such problem again, try to boot without swap - simple 
disable the cobd in the config.

What is the size of swap partition? Please check it under coLinux and 
under native Linux. Detects coLinux the size correctly?
