Comment(by frankprindle):

 Replying to [comment:45 dsaxena]:
 > I am going ahead and marking this as fixed since the timeout patch has
 been committed to all OLPC kernel trees. A proper, upstream acceptable
 quirk to handle this is still needed, but that is not a blocker for using
 SD cards on the XO.
 So by closing this ticket and #4013 you are asserting that:

 a) SD cards in use at suspend time will not have their partition
 table/logical geometry corrupted when the XO resumes.

 b) SD card partitions mounted at suspend time will still be mounted and
 usable when the XO resumes (regardless of partition type).

 c) No data written to an SD card filesystem will be lost through the
 suspend/resume cycle.

 d) The XO will suspend and resume properly when it was booted from (and
 thus its root filesystem resides on) the SD card.

 e) The XO will suspend and resume properly when there is an active swap
 partition on the SD card.

 If all of the above have been tested and found to be working, I'd say you
 have inserted one mighty wonderful line-of-code! Just don't jump to
 conclusions without testing all the permutations. Great team detective
 work, by the way!!!
