Subject: Hibernation file on Thinkpad 600X

Hello,
I have an IBM Thinkpad 600X, currently configured as dual boot
system with Windows 2000 and Linux (while I'm booting Win2k
usually inside a vmware session in Linux).
Suspend works, while hibernation does not. I understand that
the BIOS needs a hibernation file somewhere. As I'm missing
the documentation for the hardware, I'm not sure how to
configure it. With my NTFS, ext2 and reiserfs partitions,
it seems that I have to create a new fat16 partition with
a 384MB (size of RAM) hibernation file?
Can I create this partition anywhere on the disk or must it
reside at the beginning of it? Can I create the hibernation
file with tptcl or must I use ps2.exe (which I don't have)?
Any hint would be appreciated.
Regards
