It means that, during bootup, that partition will be looked at to see if
it has the data required to resume from hibernation (basically, a dump
of the memory, when it went into hibernation), and it will resume from
it, if it does, and if it can.  Otherwise, it boots up normally.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
