Bug#724275: initramfs-tools should change the resume device

["Rodolfo García Peñas (kix)" <kix@kix.es>]

Hi Olivier,

You have always the problem? I would like to reproduce it, but I can't.

Do you have installed cryptsetup?

Are you using the RSA key file line in the /etc/uswsusp.conf file? Can
you remove it and try?

Could you try different options in /etc/uswsusp.conf? For example, use
compress = n, early writeout = n, ...

Please, use update-initramfs -u -k all before the changes.

If nothing helps to find the problem, can you send me the initrd file
that you are using? Else, can you uncompress it (change the name to
initrd.gz, gzip -d initrd.gz and finally cpio -i < initrd (use an
empty folder!)) and send me the output of "ls -R".

Cheers,
kix
