Hello everyone,

Recently, I need to cut off power supply with all my running tasks saved.

But it seems that the hibernate mode provided in Debian only allows me to 

Suspend to Ram(STR, or S3 mode in ACPI).

Is there any way to Suspend to Disk (STD, or S4 Mode in ACPI) in Debian?

Thank you for your replies in advance.

Best Regards,

Richard

Do you have a swap partition? It has to be sufficient in size and is necessary for Hibernation to work.

Do the usual rules-of-thumb for swap sizing apply in the case of hibernation? Or should it be larger than that?

    My PC has 48GB of RAM and 8GB swap partition, so I have to check how
    much memory is used with "$ free -h"
    before hibernation.
    In my case it is usually around 6GB, after I close some memory hogs
    (VMs) and "sync" storage, so 8GB swap
    partition is enough for me.
