Help text

The default resume partition is the partition that the pmdisk suspend- to-disk implementation will look for a suspended disk image.

The partition specified here will be different for almost every user. It should be a valid swap partition (at least for now) that is turned on before suspending.

The partition specified can be overridden by specifying:

pmdisk=/dev/<other device>

which will set the resume partition to the device specified.

One may also do:

pmdisk=off

to inform the kernel not to perform a resume transition.

Note there is currently not a way to specify which device to save the suspended image to. It will simply pick the first available swap device.
