Had a look at ftp://ftp.software.ibm.com/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/stndalhd.txt? <quote> Limitations: - Hibernation function does not work when OS/2 Boot Manager is installed. - Hibernation function does not work with NTFS/HPFS file systems. - Hibernation by hibernation partition is not supported. Please do not select item 1. Create partition on this diskette. </quote> I guess the third item could be the reason of the "misbehaviour" itself being caused by the "unordered" partitioning/partition numbering. IIRC hibernation shall work, I read something related a while ago (but can't remember any details anymore, sorry). Maybe you find something useful on http://linux-on-laptops.com/ibm.html Greetz, Daniel -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+3lDZcVAcx24saqoRAhjOAKCWFVOQfNz2SwCbfNGDr0bw5RhilQCgiqqS DbFkCf93aVqq5/kqFOzhn9I= =GJn5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
