Mine is a dual boot ASUS running Windows and Ubuntu 19.04. I got the below message on executing apt-get upgrade. Not sure what to do. Pl advice.

I: The initramfs will attempt to resume from /dev/sda8
I: (UUID=9f45488a-dd0a-45f6-9227-3c76bf5349ca)
I: Set the RESUME variable to override this.

Part of fdisk output:

The system was just recovered after several GRUB errors and boot-repair. I don't this innocent looking message to screw up everything again.

Do you want your system to be able to resume or not?

If not, create /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume with the contents:

RESUME=none

  • I forgot my markdown. Just have one line in the file with 'RESUME=none' (without the single quotes).

    Welcome to Ask Ubuntu! I've improved the formatting. In case you weren't sure how to edit: you can edit any of your own posts by clicking the edit link that appears under it. Here's a quick guide to formatting. (You can also propose edits to improve posts other users wrote. Unlike edits to your own posts, which are applied immediately, those edits will be reviewed by others before being applied. Once you reach 2000 reputation, most of your edits no longer require review.)

  • Thanks for answering. After quite a bit of deliberation, I attempted to reinstall and ended up repairing Ubuntu installation. That helped reviving things. I am not sure if this is a 'solution' per se and hence did not suggest it as an answer.
