You are attempting to use a swap device that does not exist. Correct that.

Run manually mk_initrd, and see if there are errors.

I'm using all of Matthias' current releases and I seem to have an issue. 
  3 times in the past week hibernation has hung while writing caches. 
It's not at the same point and I've tried varying size hibernations. 
Sometimes it's halfway and sometimes it's during the 1st 100mb.  I have 
2gb RAM and a 2gb swap partition.

Any ideas???

Now that I've posted, I have the same issue with Intel graphics...

Any updates would be wonderful...
