The resume parameter in your bootloader is for suspend to disk, and
should be pointing at your swap partition if you intend to use suspend
to disk. You should think long and hard about using suspend to disk
with both Mandrake and Red Hat, since both systems will suspend to the
same partition.
Look at the /etc/fstab file in each Linux install for a line like:
/dev/hda6 none swap sw,pri=1 0 0
This indicates which partition is being used for swap. If you run:
$ /sbin/swapon -s
...you can see the active swap partitions.
