This is a fairly terrible idea, for various reasons. It might be
better for you to raise this question elsewhere, with basic info like
/why you want to do this/, but my vague guess is that whatever you're
trying to do, you might want to try doing it with virtualization
software (Virtualbox, Xen, KVM, VMWare, etc.) that is actually
designed for doing vaguely similar things. My recollection is that Xen
is specifically optimized to allow for nearly-seamless migration, so
if you actually need this sort of thing (on a phone? a laptop?
whyyyyyyy?) you might try that.
