The resume= is necessary for resume anyway, because it is done before swap partitions are activated. If you don't use resume=, the kernel won't be able to find the image. > 2.Then I create my initrd using the following command > mkinitrd --allow-missing -f /boot/initrd-2.6.13.3.img 2.6.13.3 > > 3.Then I did the following > echo shutdown > /sys/power/disk > echo disk > /sys/power/state > > It seems my system is suspended.

This happened because you didn't use resume= (see above). > In boot log message I found something like this > swapon:/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01: invalid argument > rc.sysinit: enabling swap space failed swsusp changed the signature of your swap partition, so it cannot be used as swap space any more. Normally the signature would be restored during resume, but the system didn't resume so the image is still there and it is "locked". > Now it seems my swap partition has been crashed. > So after rebooting I tried following command > swapon -s //showed nothing > cat /proc/swaps //showed nothing > free //this showed that the size of swap space is 0 > > So I tried to activate my swap space and typed this command > swapon -a > > But this gave the following error > Unable to find swap-space signature > swapon:/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01: invalid argument > > Now I can not do any thing until my swap space becomes activated. > First I did not get why my swap space got crashed ?? See above. > Second is there any way to activate my swap space ?? Yes, there is. Use mkswap. Greetings, Rafael
