I removed the resume.  I didn't think of removing the image from the
swap.  This is conjecture, since I haven't done it, but you should be
able to swapoff the swap partition, mkswap the swap partition, and
swapon the partition again.  See man swapon.

I don't have the kernel docs handy, but I think the resume parameter is
necessary to reboot from swap.  Tim could be right, but I recall that
it was possible to recover from a faulty hibernate image, or skip
it, by removing the resume parameter so that normal boot would take
place.  I haven't used hibernate for a long time, so memory only, and
could be wrong.
