Does FreeBSD know to look there for the hibernation file, or is that a BIOS thing? Also - do I use a Dell tool to create the hibernation file? I don't have Windows on my laptop - just FreeBSD, so if there is a way to do this without loading windows on it, I'd be much happier. Although I don't mind having a fat16 or fat32 partition around for this purpose..
