In the old past, several iterations ago, I used to create a separate swap
partition (twice the size of RAM, though for very large RAM, I have been using
1x or 1.5x) and use that for hibernate. But now with zram0, do we no longer
need a swap partition? If so, how is hibernate supposed to work? There is a lot
of discussion online: it appears that things changed around F38 and even later,
and also I do not seem to be able to land an official fedora document regarding
what to do. Is this something that is supposed to simply work?
Btw, in case it matters, I continue to use ext4 filesystems (except for the EFI
partition).
Sorry I am not very clear on this. Any suggestions on how to do this?
I just tested F40 in a VM. If you configure a swap partition at install
time, anaconda will set the resume parameter automatically. However, I
still had to add the "resume" module to dracut to make it work.
If secure boot is enabled, you need to encrypt the swap partition, but I
haven't had a chance to test that yet.
