Hello! PLEASE, always CC ME, as I'm not a member of your list(s). Originally I encountered the following problem when using TuxOnIce hibernate while having a TrueCrypt file mounted as a partition: After initiating the hibernation, the called text interface of TuxOnIce stops in the beginning: "Preparing image. Try 1" and the process hung there completely (displayed progress bar is showing nothing of a progress and the session is then LOST!). By coincidence I've now tried new ideas to track this down with the following results: - file size of the TrueCrypt volume doesn't matter - without TuxOnIce 3.14.10 and with in-kernel hibernate instead everything works o.k - filesystem of mounted image doesn't matter (NTFS, FAT32 & ext4 tested) Then I tested loop mounting itself: - underlying file system == ext4 of a loop mounted NTFS file(system) works o.k. - underlying file system == NTFS of a loop mounted file(system) no matter of the loop's file system DOES NOT WORK: hibernation hangs! So, I can't use TuxOnIce hibernate if there is some file mounted from a ntfs-3g mounted base partition?! As I've already written to Nigel's email address (maintainer of TuxOnIce) and never got an answer, I'm now cross-posting this issue to the related mailing lists & copy-post this text to the TUXERA forum in the hope that there may evolve some collaboration...!? I'm currently using 3.15.8 + CK1 + BFQ. PLEASE, always CC ME, as I'm not a member of your list(s). Best regards, Manuel Krause
