What? Of course it can't work. Hibernation suspends the OS in a state from which it can continue later. Quite correctly it doesn't unmount filesystems, as this would close all open file descriptors on that file system. This in turn could en up killing processes - quite possibly including your session and maybe all system daemons. Now you're in a state where you might as well have restarted from scratch, negating all the advantages of suspend/hibernation. If you want to use the same filesystem between any two OS installations (whether Linux and Linux, or Windows and Linux, or any other combination) you must not (and cannot) use hibernation unless you first unmount the relevant filesystems.
