Hi all, I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but here goes. I've just tried building LFS manually and again using nALFS (very decent program though I had to correct a couple of MD5 signatures in the 6.1.1 setup), and am now embarking on BLFS.
However, I have a need for a fast resume-from-suspend functionality. Currently, if you suspend to disk (I've been trying the kernel's swsusp functionality, not the newer suspend2), when you resume, the boot loader runs, then loads the kernel, then the kernel realises that the system has previously been suspended then reloads itself. I was wondering if a custom boot loader could be built to detect the suspended state, then restore that state without having to go to the trouble of loading the kernel. Looking at boot screens, this looks like it could cut down start times by about 60%. Does anybody know if this avenue has been explored at all?
