Yes - that its. I do not have an initrd, just buikding linux kernel from git :

$> make -j 3 && sudo su -c "mount /boot/; make modules_install && cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/linux-git"

which works well for a cold start, but during wakeup I get :

...
PM: Checking hibernation image partition /dev/sdb2
...
	then the internal sda are recognized
...
PM: Hibernation image not present or could not be loaded.
Waiting 15sec before mounting root device...
...
	now the USB devices are recognized>


 - too late for me  :-(
