Subject: Re: The never ending story: Hibernation and the correct partitioning

If you have a new HD in the Libretto that is 8GB or smaller, then a fdisk
followed by format should automatically put the hibernation partition at the
very end of the HD w/o any user intervention.  You only need to worry about
creating the single primary partition - the space for the hibernation partition
is automatically subtracted.

I forget whether the L100 bios is capable of fully supporting larger sized HDs.
Either way, the hibernation partition will either be automatically created at
the end of 8GB, or at the end of the HD.  You can test this easily by saving a
big file crossing the 8GB limit, hibernate, and see if it becomes messed up. 
If so, then the hibernation is at 8GB, otherwise, at the end of the HD.
