Sorry, I missed on the partition thing.

As for S1 and S3 you are right, although I was meaning to the suspend
to ram state more then the acpi state.
To be more correct, afaik suspend to ram is only possible on 2.4 with
apm since S1 and S3 are only enabled in 2.6 and not 2.4.
Suspend to disk is possible either with apm (if the bios supports it
using the dedicated partition) and using the swsusp patch which
suspends to swap space.
I hope I got it right this time ;-)
