I do not use mondo; so I ask: are you sure that mondorestore does not change the partition table? Are you sure that the files you restored are not responsable for the apparence of swsusp in the boot process? > that point.

If there is something related to resuming a suspended session, delete it. Also, boot in single user mode or even with init=/bin/bash (and then "mount -o remount,rw /") and purge any package related to swsusp ("apt-cache search swsusp" gives me only the package uswsusp). If all seems to fail, boot with a live cd (or the debian installation cd in rescue mode), mount your disk, chroot where the disc is mounted, purge uswsusp, edit the boot loader configuration (possibly menu.lst in /boot/grub/, but it depends upon your boot loader), reinstall the kernel (to recreate the initrd) and the boot loader There is absolutely NO need to reinstall once again (unless you have severely messed up your partition table and filesysetems, or things like that). -- Chi usa software non libero avvelena anche te.

Someone else https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2008/05/msg00230.html just had a thread about problems with swsusp (suspend to swap). You can search for that thread, but I'd suggest you boot with the install CD in rescue mode, run a shell on your system, run aptitude and remove swsusp. Then again, I never need to suspend. Doug.

I'm not sure what happened, but I'll admit I was working inKDE prior to my reboot.
