For now, it is only possible to suspend to a swap file using the in-kernel swsusp and the resume cannot be initiated from an initrd. [Note to Pavel: I have added a couple of paragraphs to the documentation to clarify some things pointed out by Dave, but I hope the ACK still applies. ;-) ] Greetings, Rafael -- You never change things by fighting the existing reality.
