You are, if course, correct -- closing the lid suspends, which is good enough for what I need. Hibernate is a bit clunky, but I think between suspend and just shutting the machine down, I'm covered....

Disk Utility SMART status shows disk is healthy.

Turns out that when I hibernate simply by closing the laptop (which is how I normally do it), everything works smoothly. It's only when I hibernate...

Did the above. Now when I try to hibernate, the screen freezes and eventually the machine shuts down. When I reboot it, I get that "resume from dev/[UUID]" message, and a lot of ugly hard drive...

I followed the above and now get:

Well, I was clicking on "hibernate" not suspend, so I assume that's what it was doing. And I remember reading that you can't hibernate in wubi, so I was a bit confused, but I didn't pursue it...

Hi,

I recently migrated from wubi to a dual-boot partition with 10.04, on an Asus UL-30a. Everything went well, but one remaining issue is that I can't get hibernation to work. (Ironically, it...

I ran:

sudo blkid /dev/sda7

and got:

/dev/sda7: LABEL="Swap" UUID="24622487-0dd5-4c54-bd7f-724c9bf66979" TYPE="swap"

I then changed my fstab and resume files to match it:

OK, I uncommended that line and saved it. Then I ran the code to update ram, and got:



bwbloch@ubuntu:~$ $ sudo blkid /dev/sda7
$: command not found
bwbloch@ubuntu:~$ /dev/sda7:...

bcbc,

I'm back because even though I haven't resolved how to best partition my disk, I at least want to have my swap partition working so I can hibernate. As I described above, I set it up in gParted as...

In migrating from wubi to a dual boot set up, I of course had to set up partitions but didn't quite know what I was doing despite having read HowToPartition, etc. I've since deleted the ones I...

Two questions: I'm running 10.04 in a Windows dual boot. I've had difficulty with clonezilla, partimage and tar.gz, and have settled on the following backup strategy:

1) Have Windows recovery CD...

OK, I'll research and check the appropriate threads for the best way to back up and then optimize the partitons.

Thanks for all your help!

Rebooted and looks like everything is working great -- Many thanks!

To complete the process, I'd like to optimize the partitioning.
First, in GParted, can I change the file system type (for...

I had backed up my data files but not my wubi files before I ran into this problem.

Since my last post I ran windows recovery (since one problem I had was that Win7 stopped running when I had wubi set up). So, looking in windows disk management, Isee that my...

Hi,

I've followed the above to migrate from wubi, creating sda6 and sda 7 (as I already had an sda5 and didn't want to accidentally erase data).

when rebooting, I get the grub prompt.
