That might work, or might not... depending on whether the hibernation partition needs a special format or not. I have no idea what BIOS a Vaio uses, but if it has a Phoenix BIOS, try Patrick Ashmore's lphdisk (pronounced elf disk) - http://www.procyon.com/~pda/ Phdisk type hibernation volumes do need some partition details, just being of fdisk type a0 (thinkpad hibernate) isn't enough. However - if it's one of those annoying types where the hibernate file lives on a FAT filesystem - you can just copy a working hibernate file. Make sure your fellow user has the same amount of memory though. * Heather Stern * star@ many places...
