    Exclamation could not stat resume device dev/dm-0

    After installing 'hibernate';
    when I first reboot my PC I encountered following *similar message

    Code:
    libcrypt version: 1.5.0
    Could not stat the resume device file /dev/dm-0
    Please type in the full path name to try again or press enter to boot the system
    Very Similar situation with this thread, when restarts I get GRUB option where I can get access to system via earlier versions of Linux (with no GPU/ graphics cards supported.) So I can post this query from firefox. But not able to boot normally.
    Please help.

    In past I'd stuck at worse situation & GParted with boot'd through pendrive saved my life, but this time I've access to GUI & CLI and can edit files conf if required so I should try that first (GParted is the last resort of course)
    I've removed 'hibernate'
    as well as 'uswsusp' But it's not helpful. It's stuck at above message.
    On internet I couldn't find proper solutions (hence the thread)

    I recently upgraded to 12.04 from 10.04 LTS Ubuntu Server edition (with Ubuntu Desktop on top of it). Now I regret it most, as new problems are surfacing every hour.

    viola! Resolved!
    What I did this time,
    I hibernate my PC
    Code:
    sudo pm-hibernate
    which switched the computer off & when I resumed it booted normally.
    I dont know what I did, but the issue is resolved.
    Now reading all threads I'm not gonna touch suspend, hibernate, standby in my Ubuntu Machines for sure.

    Re: could not stat resume device dev/dm-0

    I just had the exact same problem.
    I installed 12.04 LTS Desktop version on my laptop yesterday and managed to install all my apps and get everything working which took me over a day.

    Code:
    libcrypt version: 1.5.0 Could not stat the resume device file /dev/dm-0 Please type in the full path name to try again or press enter to boot the system
    After installing hibernate in synaptic, I rebooted to set the power-options ( hibernate on closing the laptop lid ), but I never saw the light of Ubuntu's day again.

    I have a working linux (suse 11.4) on my laptop which I can use to go through the Ubuntu installation on filesystem and possibly make minor changes, but have no clue how to fix this.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Just experienced this, I almost shat bricks when I thought my encrypted filesystem would never see light of day again. I too fell victim of this hibernate program, as suspend doesnt seem to work properly, and I want something to just put computer to sleep, tried hibernate and this happened... I would think that this is a bug and they should remove it from the repos... EDIT: I am on 12.10 btw
