[gentoo-user] Software suspend 2

[James Colby]

List members -

I am trying to to set up software suspend 2 on my laptop using the
instructions found on gentoo-wiki.com.  I am at the section where I
need to configure my boot loader (I'm using lilo) and when I add the
following entry to my lilo.conf:
image=/boot/gentoo-suspend2
  label=gentoo-suspend2
  append =  resume2=swap:/dev/hda7
  read-only
  root=/dev/hda8

I get the following error when running lilo:
Syntax error at or above line 14 in file '/etc/lilo.conf'.  Line 14 is
the append line.  Does anyone have any idea as to what may be causing
this?

Thanks,
James

My append line looks like this:

        append="udev CONSOLE=/dev/tty1"

Notice the difference between spaces and quotes in mine compared to
yours. Hope that helps.

I am no lilo expert, but the forst thing that strikes me about the lilo
file you posted is that most of the lines have no spaces around the =
sign. Line 14 does.

Well, no idea, but you can skip that append, if you set a default
suspend "device" in the kernel configuration.
