Hi there
Is it possible to save dired buffer in order to reuse it in latter
sessions? I know that I can save all opened buffers using desktop.el
script. But it saves everything.
I want to be able to save only one dired buffer and to give it
specific filename so I can open it and continue work latter...
Regards

You can save a bookmark to that directory, so that opening that bookmark
later (e.g. in a future Emacs session) will open Dired on that directory.
See the Emacs manual about bookmarks.

You might want to check out dired-virtual-mode. It is part of
dired-x. I use it to save large dired listings, maybe for directories
that I know will take a lot of time to refresh. I save these buffers
as a normal text file, with the extension .dired, and combine this
with the following customization:
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("[^/]\\.dired$" . dired-virtual-mode))
