Hi all,
I've recently downloaded Ubuntu 18.04 and tried to install it on VMware 12.5.7 (my CPU is not supported by VMware 14.x) running on a Win10 host.
During the installation, the only thing non-default is that I've chosen LVM (as I've more experience with LVM from work and I like how it works).
After the OS installation completed, the only thing I've done is install open-vm-tools (as recommended by Canonical) and not VMware Tools.
As you see, I haven't done much yet ;) so it should be quite reproducible :)
When I boot my VM there is 34 second timeout happening before "Gave up waiting for suspend/resume device".
![]()
After going down the rabbit hole, I managed to get a "set -x" and some echos just before the timeout, with the following result:
![]()
This was done by editing:
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-premount/resume
which calls a function local_device_setup() in:
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local
followed by running
It seems like my swap is causing the issue
I already tried inserting UUIDs in /etc/fstab, but this did not help.
Even commenting out the swap in /etc/fstab (as a test) didn't help.
Can someone instruct me what else I can try?
Thanks!
