Hi, In fact, Phoenix bioses can have hibernation-partition or hibernation-file. So I presume that shrinking the Windows partition modified the position of the partition file, so the bios can't find it anymore. > Would there be some way I could reinstall hibernation in the last portion > of hda1 or elsewhere using something like phdisk or lphdisk or > some other means? So far I have not located a description or > documentation for phdisk. You can use phdisk under DOS (no option or /? -> help page) to (re)make an hibernation-file. lphdisk works under Linux and creates hibernation-partitions. It's less error-prone than phdisk (phdisk can write over another partition, it happened to me : it maked its partition in the middle of my (at this time empty) /usr/local partition. > Thanks in advance to anyone who can give me an explanation of this. > > Steve -- __ ________________________________________________ __ |oo| | Sylvain Sauvage, doctorant [IAD & SMA] | |oo| <_)| | GREYC -- CNRS UMR 6072, Université de Caen | <_)| // \\ | | // \\ (_| |_) | http://www.info.unicaen.fr/~sauvage | (_| |_) |_\==/_| |_______ mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] _________| |_\==/_|
