Good point.. I just copied the UUID substitution from another place in the init scripts without noticing that it was one of many different handlings of the ROOT= variable. Is the addition of swsuspend SWAPTYPE ok? -- [lucid regression] does not resume from hibernation, restarts fresh

wait-for-root looks like it handles UUID=... file system types, but the /bin/resume binary in the initramfs does not.. Is this a bug in klibc, or do the initramfs scripts need to convert to the /dev/ form as required by resume? fprintf(stderr, Usage: %s /dev/resumedevice [offset]\n,

How about this patch? It factors out the UUID= and LABEL= handling into a function, and uses that for both root= and resume= handling. I've not tested it with anything other than a UUID resume though. ** Attachment added: Debdiff v2 http://launchpadlibrarian.net/39491022/fix_suspend.debdiff
