How to change "resume device" in initrd

English Install/Boot/Login
#1

Hi everyone,

I’ve edited my HDD partition using Gparted. The swap partiton, which was /dev/sda6, has become /dev/sda7.

I’ve edited /etc/fstab and **/etc/default/grub **then run grub-mkconfig (PS: I use GRUB2). But when I ran /sbin/mkinitrd, “resume device” remained /dev/disk/by-id/ata-…-part6(/dev/sda6)

By editing which document can I change that:question:

Thanks

I think you edited the right ones. Maybe you missed an entry. Check
again. Or post them here for us to check.

Could you paste output of mkinitrd? In tags code, please.

That information is also in “/etc/sysconfig/bootloader” (as DEFAULT_APPEND). I’m not quite sure what uses that, but you could try changing it there.

I believe that one is used by grub 1 only.

Hello,

Thanks all for your reply. It turns out that simply reboot my laptop after running grub-mkconfig then run mkinitrd, and the “resume device” is changed!

:confused::confused::confused:Why do most of my stupid questions submitted here end up settled accidentally by myself？:shame:

Strange. It should not be that complex.
