Hmm. Interesting. I _guess_ this problem is ACPI-related as well. You can try putting 'shutdown method = shutdown' into /etc/suspend.conf (or whatever the s2disk's configuration file is on your system). If possible, it would be interesting to see if that also happens if 'echo disk > /sys/power/state' is used to trigger hibernation instead of s2disk. In particular when booted with init=/bin/bash.
