No. Hibernated image should be saved in a dedicated raw partition as you said below. > - I thought we probably have to dedicate a raw partition kind of thing > for saving image and then modify boot loader command line to something > similar to, "resume=partition".

But the boot-loader command line only need to be changed during system install or hibernation setup. We need not change the location of "hibernation partition" frequently. So I think one boot-loader command line is sufficient for: - normal boot - normal boot a system to be hibernated - boot helper system to restore the hibernated system Best Regards, Huang Ying _______________________________________________ linux-pm mailing list linux-pm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linux-foundation.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-pm
