If you read the response on that bugzilla, it says Anaconda isn't configuring a system to be be able to hibernate. That does not equate to not needing to set up adequate space to be able to hibernate. If hibernating is going to be a memory dump to hard drive, then the hard drive space (it's using the swap file/partition) *needs* to be big enough. Doing something that *might* work, doesn't fit the definition of doing what *needs* to be done, to make it work. Compression isn't always possible. Attempting to rely on something that might work is pretty much guaranteed to bite you on the bum at the time you needed it to work. -- [tim@localhost ~]$ uname -rsvp Linux 3.8.13-100.fc17.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon May 13 13:36:17 UTC 2013 x86_64 All mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted, there is no point trying to privately email me, I will only read messages posted to the public lists.
