Howdy-
As you can probably guess, IBM's support does not want to touch this
one (though to their credit, they did talk with me more than I
expected and sent a question up to level 2 that I am waiting to hear
back on).
Here's the partition configuration of my TP560's 2GB drive:
1 - 1.2G Window's NT NTFS partition
2 - 800MB Extended partition w/a single logical partition holding
a large Linux ext2 filesystem
3 - 55 MB FAT partition (almost empty)
(created w/PartitionMagic and glued together nicely via System Commander)
My goal is to get this puppy to hibernate to a file on the FAT
partition. I've tried unsuccessfully to create the hibernation file
two different ways:
1) ThinkPad Features for NT, running under NT4.0:
In this case, it sees the FAT partition as drive D: (as it
should). Appears to be making the file just fine. Gets to
the end and offers this incredibly helpful message "File
operation could not be completed".
2) Booted with a floppy to DOS, tried to use PS2 program
Failed almost immediately with a complaint about not being
able to create the file on the external (bzzt!) or compressed
(bzzzt! no compression in use) drive.
Does anyone have any other ideas? Thanks a bunch in advance.
Respectfully,
