Wow! This is a great piece of work! I haven't tested it myself, but staring at the package, it really does look complete (mkinitrd script, mkswap script, hibernate recommendation). For those testing with initrd's, can I ask people to test it without putting the resume2= line on the kernel command-line? It shouldn't be needed as the script detects your swap partition, but some people have occasionally reported that it didn't work without the kernel command-line option. BTW Martin, the mkinitrd script is missing some >&2 's on the two echo lines that make that comment (so was I :) Also FWIW, I wrote the script under DebianInitrd on the wiki - I'm willing to call it public domain "do what you want with it", unless there are any reasons not to.
