Unable to hibernate Kali Linux after deleting swap partition

Unix & Linux Asked on December 29, 2021

I had mistakenly deleted my Kali Linux swap partition in GPARTED, which was around 7gb, and now I’m unable to hibernate my laptop. Also, my system is taking too much time during boot. It stuck when the logo of Kali Linux appears.

One Answer

During hibernation, the state of the machine is saved to the swap partition. So if the swap partition has been deleted, the machine can't hibernate. You should restore the swap partition or set up Kali to use a swap file instead (if possible).

As suggested, Kali is best used as a live distro, where you shouldn't have the need to hibernate.
