Hi,
I am *completely* new to Darwin programming, and this idea
probably won't work at all: a couple of times, the battery ran down
and the book went into (due to some bug) a "permanent sleep" mode -
indicator light was on, USB ad FW power lines were on but nothing
would wake the computer. So, not knowing about the hibernate feature
(I should have just pulled the battery), I did a hard reset (power
button) instead. But I made copies of both the sleepimage and
swapfile0 files, but not the app_profiles folder (except in one
case). Is there any way to rewrite the part of Darwin that specifies
the path to the image files, so I might be able to restore the
computer to a previous state (or change the path before putting the
computer to sleep)? Or at least restore it enough to pull off some
web addresses from minimized windows in Camino..), or is there other
information (processor registers, etc) that are stored somewhere else
that are needed) As I said, probably impossible..
Jim
