Subject: Swsusp, resume and kernel versions
Date: Wed, 16 Feb 2005 23:46:25 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200502162346.26143.dtor_core@ameritech.net> (raw)

Pavel,

First of all I must say that swsusp has progressed alot and now works
very reliably, at least for my configuration, and I use it a lot. Great
job!

But I think there is one pretty severe issue present - even if swsusp
is not enabled kernel should check if there is an image in swap and
erase it. Today I has somewhat unpleasant experience - after suspending
I accidentially loaded a vendor kernel. I was in hurry and decided that
resume just failed for some reason so I did couple of things and left
the box running. In the evening I realized that I am running vendor kernel
and decided to reboot into my devel. version. What I did not expect is for
the kernel to find a valid suspend image and restore it. As you might
imagine messed up my disk somewhat.

Any chance this can be done?
