Not having an Etherlink III I didn't reply to your original posting, however I too have had problems hibernating (and suspending) with an Ethernet card (ICcard (D-Link DE650 clone)) activated (under OS/2 Warp Connect). The problem in this case was the NDIS driver (as far as I could tell). By having CONFIG.A and CONFIG.B and using the OS/2 Alt-F1 menu to choose, I can have either a LAN activated configuration - lots of LAN drivers, etc, Ethernet activated, but can't use hibernate (not too much of a problem as I'd be on mains anyway) and an "on the road" configuration with no LAN drivers, Ethernet disabled, but hibernate (usually) working fine. And this is on an all HPFS disk. I do occasionally have the machine (TP 755CX) seize up on me when I try and hibernate, even with the Ethernet disabled, but very seldon, and usually its fine and I have no FAT partition. I am therefore surprised to hear IBM tell you that it should be FAT. The ThinkPad Book .INF file doesn't mention this when talking about creating a hibernation file under OS/2, though it does specify not on a compressed drive.
