I was under the impression that:

It needed to hibernate to a swap partition, not a file.  Or, perhaps,
an accessible file at pre-boot time (which might preclude encrypted
partitions, or files on certain partitions that aren't mounted soon
enough).

And that it needed to be somewhat bigger than your RAM.

And that you may need to set a kernel parameter to point at the thing,
so it knew where to look when trying to wake up.

That's about all I can remember about trying to hibernate.

I think my laptop is the only thing that I can get to hibernate, but
it's got MINT on it.  Years ago I could get a desktop PC to hibernate, 
but I never had a need to hibernate the desktop PCs, so after a couple
of failed experiments to see if it still worked in more recent times, I
didn't bother trying to figure it out.
