Excellent! How were you able to figure this out? I have no experience
with s2disk. I don't have it installed, and I've been running Desktop
Debian systems for a long time; so you don't need it.
It could also be that a second reboot solved the problem. Perhaps
during the first reboot something got written to the swap device,
now that /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume had valid information,
and that signature was detected during the second reboot. I really
don't know. In any case, I'm glad that you can now boot with no
manual intervention.
