** Description changed:

  I have a Acer Aspire 9300 laptop on which I tried installing Hardy
  alpha.
  
  I did it several times with always the same result: hibernation
  apparently destroys something on disk that makes partition table
  unreadable.
  
  Once I installed it with encrypted LVM. After hibernate, I could no
  longer boot and got a message "cryptsetup fails". I thought that it was
  a mess up of encrypted LVM.
  
  Then I installed Hardy without encrypted LVM. Tried to hibernate.
  Hibernate got stuck (power light was still on). After a few minutes, I
  powered the computer off and on, and it would not boot saying "GRUB
  ERROR 17".
  
  Apparently hibernation ruins something on the hard drive.
  
  I have nothing to attach because my install is fscked up 100% right now.
  
  I have nothing on this laptop that is of any value (not backed up), so
  it is not a huge deal to me personally, but  it feels like a bad bug.
+ 
+ note that I used autopartitioning and seem to have a lot more swap space
+ than RAM.
