AFAIK, the method of choice is to edit /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume and then to run update-initramfs -u This is how it works on Ubuntu, anyway. FWIW on my Ubuntu 8.04 system, hibernate works quite reliably (thought not perfectly reliable), albeit from the internal SSD. There were problems having the SD card available at resume time in the past, but I don't know if they still exist in current kernels.
