(Get the code!)
Let me make sure I understand the problem. Let's say a machine has 8GB of RAM. At install time, the boot kernel only sees 3GB of RAM, so it creates a 3GB swap partition. Then later, the installer detects that the PAE kernel is needed, so it installs it.
After reboot, the user is able to address all 8GB of RAM, but now they have a swap partition that is not big enough to hold the contents of memory, therefore hibernate (suspending to disk) is likely to fail.
Do I have that right?
