-	  You may suspend your machine by 'swsusp' or 'shutdown -z <time>' 
-	  (patch for sysvinit needed). 
+	  Enable the suspend to disk (STD) functionality, which is usually
+	  called "hibernation" in user interfaces.  STD checkpoints the
+	  system and powers it off; and restores that checkpoint on reboot.

+	  Alternatively, you can use the additional userland tools available

+
+	  In principle it does not require ACPI or APM, although for example
+	  ACPI will be used for the final steps when it is available.  One
+	  of the reasons to use software suspend is that the firmware hooks
+	  for suspend states like suspend-to-RAM (STR) often don't work very
+	  well with Linux.
+
+	  It creates an image which is saved in your active swap. Upon the next
 	  boot, pass the 'resume=/dev/swappartition' argument to the kernel to
 	  have it detect the saved image, restore memory state from it, and
 	  continue to run as before. If you do not want the previous state to
-	  be reloaded, then use the 'noresume' kernel argument. However, note
-	  that your partitions will be fsck'd and you must re-mkswap your swap
-	  partitions. It does not work with swap files.
+	  be reloaded, then use the 'noresume' kernel command line argument.
+	  Note, however, that fsck will be run on your filesystems and you will
+	  need to run mkswap against the swap partition used for the suspend.
 
-	  Right now you may boot without resuming and then later resume but
-	  in meantime you cannot use those swap partitions/files which were
-	  involved in suspending. Also in this case there is a risk that buffers
-	  on disk won't match with saved ones.
+	  It also works with swap files to a limited extent (for details see
+	  <file:Documentation/power/swsusp-and-swap-files.txt>).

+	  Right now you may boot without resuming and resume later but in the
+	  meantime you cannot use the swap partition(s)/file(s) involved in
+	  suspending.  Also in this case you must not use the filesystems

+	  MOUNT any journaled filesystems mounted before the suspend or they
+	  will get corrupted in a nasty way.

-	  we need identity mapping for resume to work, and that is trivial
