I don't have a FAT partition, I have an NTFS partition, so that wasn't an option. I've used phdisk with Sony machines - roughly the same phoenix bios - before and used the suspend to disk stuff there with partitions, so wasn't too worried about it. > It also seems you put the hibernation partition after Windows and > before FreeBSD.

The hibernation partition seems to be found by partition id and number. It is always created as the 4th slice by phdisk. The position and order doesn't seem to matter. > 3.

The XP pre-install on the X30 installs to FAT32 and as part of the setup when you first boot it automaticly converts to NTFS. I don't really know enough about windows to do anything more to it. > Incidently, Windows 2000 Pro seems also to insist upon using > c:\hiberfil.sys, just like your observations of XP. *nod* P. -- pir pir-sig@pir.net pir-sig@net.tufts.edu To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
