Doesn't work. The machine tries to restore from suspend regardless of
no-restore?.
I solved the problem by booting the Solaris CD, abandoned the installation
program, opened a command tool, mounted the root filesystem and deleted .cpr*
and .CPR. The file that did the trick was .cpr_defaults ( or something similar
).
