You need to repartition to create a magic partition. If your laptop has
a phoenix bios then you set the partition type for the new partition to
IBM Hibernate Partition (can't remember the number, but it's in the
lphdisk manpage), make sure it's big enough for the amount of RAM you
have, format it with lphdisk and bingo (or that's the theory)
