Hi! |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I'd like to get Suspend-To-Disk working on my notebook. For this, |
| 4 |
I'd like to use suspend2 http://suspend2.net/, using the |
| 5 |
suspend2-sources-2.6.13-r4. I tried to follow the |
| 6 |
<http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Software_Suspend_v2> as closely |
| 7 |
as possible. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
On my system, I'm using LVM for everything, besides /boot and |
| 10 |
swap. This means, that / is also on a LVM2 LV. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Suspending the system works somewhat fine when I'm in text |
| 13 |
mode and call the hibernate script. What does not (satisfactory) |
| 14 |
work, is resuming. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
The suspend2 howto at <http://www.suspend2.net/HOWTO-7.html#ss7.3> |
| 17 |
says: |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
| in your linuxrc/init: |
| 20 |
| mount /proc |
| 21 |
| load modules as required |
| 22 |
| use dmsetup create dm-0 <path to config-file> to set up access to the LVM partition |
| 23 |
| echo > /proc/software_suspend/do_resume |
| 24 |
| do any other actions required (mount rootfs if initramfs...) |
| 25 |
[...] |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
As my / is on a LVM, I must (must I?) use an initrd. For this, |
| 28 |
I use the genkernel initramfs and also linuxrc. Trying to |
| 29 |
follow the advice from the suspend2.net HOWTO, I'm looking for |
| 30 |
the correct spot to add "echo > /proc/software_suspend/do_resume". |
| 31 |
Where would this be? |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Reading /usr/share/genkernel/generic/linuxrc, I find in |
| 34 |
line 25 "mount -o remount,rw /". But this should be AFTER |
| 35 |
dmsetup has been invoked. But where is the call to dmsetup |
| 36 |
in the linuxrc of genkernel? |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Is anyone here using swsusp2 with LVM? What's the correct |
| 39 |
and working configuration? |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Thanks, |
| 42 |
