Hi, Andrew, Thanks for taking the trouble. I have indeed tried "noresume," and it fails in the same old way. Apparently the problem is built into initrd.img-(uname -), since two of my kernels fail in the same way, and only the one whose initrd.img-(uname -).bak was saved. I now fear to touch that one, since it's all that keeps the machine bootable. | I dimly recall setting the resume partition in the initramfs.conf | process somewhere, but can't seem to find documentation about that | now. I've looked at that documentation, without finding anything helpful. /etc/initramfs-tools.conf.d/resume is set to the proper resume partition. I can s2ram successfully from the one working kernel, but of course can't experiment with the others because they won't boot. Thanks for your efforts. -- johnrchamp...@columbus.rr.com ==================================================== GPG key 1024D/99421A63 2005-01-05 EE51 79E9 F244 D734 A012 1CEC 7813 9FE9 9942 1A63 gpg --keyserver subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 99421A63
