R>> Yes. My VAIO has (or is that had now) a partition that was 131M in R>> size, since the max memory was 128M + 2M for video + 1M for slop.

Is there a way to resize R>some of the partitioning, or does FreeBSD not take kindly to such things? Isn't "hibernation" on the Toshiba Satellites a Windoze thing, rather than an APM function ? At least that's the impression I get from Toshiba's lame documentation. As for APM suspend/resume, I think I've managed a stable suspend/resume configuration on my 4030CDT -- the o/s (3.3-R/PAO3) was last restarted several days ago, and has been through a dozen or so suspend/resume cycles without difficulty. Specifically: BIOS v7.40. PAO3-19991007 patches, apm flags 0x0, options "VM86" All suspends while ttyv0 (vidcontrol -s 1) is displayed. Suspend with "apm -z". Resume with the power switch. APM "Execute hook" messages enabled from kernel's apm.c. The last bit was tried after running this config for a day with APM_DEBUG enabled and no failed resumes. I have the newer PAO3 patches, so I'll probably look at this again on the weekend. Only problem now (except for no sound support) is that "sysctl kern.boottime" is not updated correctly following the resume event.
