I see. Thanks for explaining, John. I think it would be possible, in most cases, to use the swap partition to save the state for hibernate, though. What do you think? Does the APM code in the kernel rely on the APM BIOS to do the actual writing of the RAM image? If it does, wouldn't it be possible to fool it and make do without any FAT partitions? I have to look into this, but any input from someone who has allready done so is welcome. -- Mikael "MC" Cardell <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Temple of the Moby Hack Any connection between your reality and mine is purely coincidental.
