Hmm - that doen't seem to fix it :-(:
After the reboot, fdisk still reports 137.4GB, and dmesg now contains
the line:
ata1.00: device aborted resize (268435456 -> 312581808), skipping HPA
handling
instead of
ata1.00: HPA detected: current 268435456, native 312581808
that we have seen without the libata.ignore_hpa=1 kernel command line
option.
After s2ram -f -p, I still see the EXT3-fs error on resume. Is it worth
to take another log from this suspend /resume cycle?
