FWIW, here's the (short ;-) ) URL from IBM's ThinkPad support page:

http://www.pc.ibm.com/qtechinfo/MIGR-4PESMK.html?lang=en_US&brand=IBM+ThinkPad%7CThinkPad+A21p&family=IBM+ThinkPad%7CThinkPad+A21p&doctype=&subtype=Cat

(One line, of course!)

With regard to the error message you're getting: You should have a
separate FAT partition for hibernation. This one should be a primary
partition AFAIK which is slightly larger than your amount of RAM. Did
you create such a partition and is it empty so far?
