Description John Martin 2005-10-10 01:18:51 UTC
In SuSE 9.3 when I would suspend to disk I could reboot into windows, or any 
other OS, now I am forced back into SuSE linux. This is really annoying and I 
can't figure out where to go to turn this off, so it must be a bug.

Its a feature. It prevents you from corrupting your data. If you do suspend
manually (echo 4 > /proc/acpi/sleep), you'll likely work around that protection.

Anyway, not a kernel problem.

it is not a bug, it is a feature to protect your data and filesystems.
And it is documented in the powersave config files how to disable it.
