Description Fabrice Bellet 2008-02-24 09:56:07 UTC 
My swap partition is described as LABEL=swap in /etc/fstab, and is a real
partition on the disk (/dev/sda6), not a volume handled by lvm.

Previously in Fedora 8, the initrd worked by using "resume LABEL=swap". In
recent initrd, the swap partition is described as /sys/block/sda//sda6, which is
not the block device the system is expected to resume from. The result is that
"resume /sys/block/sda//sda6" silently fails, and the regular boot continues.

This problem seems introduced by the line suspdev=$(findblockdevinsys
"$swsuspdev") in mkinitrd.
