Thanks for the help, James Try pressing shift at that screen and see if standby changes to hibernate. If not search windows help for information on setting up hibernate.

Standby in Windows is just sleep mode, aka suspend-to-RAM. You're looking for hibernate, aka suspend-to-disk. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list

Would hibernate give me what You can simply change the behavior of the power button to hibernate at the control panel, that was the easiest way to anchieve that in my laptop, but I didn't know about the shift trick, thanks Anthony. I'm looking for. Yes, the system would hibernate and at the next power up the system would effectively boot, not just wake up, and you would get the lilo boot.

All - Thanks for the tips...I went into the power control settings in the control panel and enabled hibernation. Now when I shutdown there is an option to hibernate. Thanks for the help everyone.

[gentoo-user] System Suspend...kind of OT
List members - I have a laptop that I dual boot with windows and gentoo. My gentoo installation has software suspend working. When I run the hibernate script the system hibernates and then powers down. When I press the power button on my laptop I am then presented with my lilo boot menu and I can choose Gentoo, and resume my session. Now when I boot into windows and I suspend my session...the session suspends and my system powers off. When I press the power button the system automatically resumes my windows session and I am never presented with the lilo menu. Is there a change that I could make to my windows suspend options so that when I press the power button I am presented with the lilo boot menu and I can choose to resume either windows or gentoo. Thanks for any input that you may have, and I apologize if this is too off topic for this list. -James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
