I'm not sure whether this is relevant for the 560 but someone recently
mentioned a web page that contained lots of useful information related to
the TP701 & Warp, including a REXX script that created a proper
hibernation file on an HPFS partition.

I tried it on the only partition (HPFS) of my TP701 and sure enough it did
create the file and I was able to use hibernation thereafter.

The URL was off www.secant.com/sipples/

Maybe the magic the REXX script does in HPFS can be adapted for NT's
native file system (to address the original poster's problem).
