Dual boot + hibernate

[Mike Leahy]

Leon,

Thanks for the tip - I'm thinking it would be kind of nice if the grub 
hook could be excluded as a commandline option when running the 
pm-hibernate executable (kind of like how yum allows you to 
enable/disable individual repos).  Oh well...this workaround will do the 
trick for me.

And yes - hibernate is working fine for me as far as I can tell.  But I 
have only been running FC6T2 for about two weeks now.  Whatever is 
breaking hibernate for you Leon either occurred with earlier updates 
that I didn't get, or some other problem I could only guess at.

Regards,
Mike
