There are two commands to create a swap-File. First: "dd if=/dev/zero of=/swap bs=1024k count=256" Second: "mkswap /swap" You put the two commands in one line without a blank between so it looks like one command that doesn't work. Thank you very much! Hello,

There are two commands to create a swap-File. First:
"dd if=/dev/zero of=/swap bs=1024k count=256"

Second:
"mkswap /swap"

You put the two commands in one line without a blank between so it looks like one command that doesn't work.

Thank you very much!

"resume device" must be the partition and not the swap file, so : resume device = /dev/sda1 ... works !!! The "resume offset = 8288" is here to tell where the swapfile is located.

My swapfile is 256MB (created using your command line), so that is 268435456 bytes. My uswsusp.conf file looks fine to me : # /etc/uswsusp.conf(8) -- Configuration file for s2disk/s2both resume device = /swap compress = y early writeout = y image size = 238941634 RSA key file = /etc/uswsusp.key shutdown method = platform resume offset = 8288 What could be wrong here ?

What could be wrong here ?
