If you reconvert the FAT32 to FAT16 (with > PartitionMagic 3.0 - the only method I know) hibernation file will be > created and Hibernate mode (Fn-F12) will work also. > The 701 is a special case, since the hibernate file is created from the bios and the bios does not neccessarily see a fat32 partition.. i am not certain, since my 701's all use 2 or 3 or 4gig drives and the bios sure does not see anything larger than 1gig.. all it will report is the remaining amount OVER the 1gig limit..so, what I do is create a small (43meg) partition, label it as hibernate, and make it fat16.. thus the drive is a fat32 (4k clusters) except for the 43meg logical partition, which is, i thing 1k clusters of less.. fat32 will see fat16 partitions.. the reverse is not neccessarily so, unless you are using osr2/fat16 to 'see' the fat32 partition.. > But I preferred the advantage of the 4K cluster in FAT32 over the > hibernation functions... > > Cristian DUSA > cdusa@netsoft.ro > > ---------- > > From: Scott Lewis <sl@eyequip.com> > > To: thinkpad@cs.utk.edu > > Subject: hibernation in 560c > > Date: Monday, May 04, 1998 6:12 PM > > > > I had to replace my HD in my 560.
