First, I had to keyword "=sys-power/suspend-0.8 ~x86" in package.keywords. I set up suspend.conf like so... snapshot device = /dev/snapshot resume device = /dev/sda6 #image size = 350000000 #suspend loglevel = 2 compute checksum = y #compress = y #encrypt = y #early writeout = y #splash = y Here is my disk layout [d530][root][~] fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Disk identifier: 0xd0000000 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 60801 488384001 5 Extended /dev/sda5 1 62 497952 83 Linux /dev/sda6 63 549 3911796 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sda7 550 60801 483974158+ 83 Linux No, it's not LVM. / is half-a-gig, followed by swap, followed by the rest of the drive. I use multiple bindmounts to make things look normal. When I tried "sync", followed by "hibernate" it shut down, but when I powered back up with the power button, here's what happened... - on the reboot, it complained about the superblock "last access" being in the future (the half-gig partition is ext2) - it "fixed" the access date - complained that the hard drive was "dirty", i.e. not properly shut down - rebooted - played back a whole bunch of disk transactions on /dev/sda7 (reiserfs). Did i mention I ran "sync" before "hibernate"? - it did the rest of the ordinary boot process. - it did *NOT* restore anything from the previous session. Do I have to explicitly set something to tell it to restore a previous session? Gentoo-wiki is stll down. -- Walter Dnes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
