Default hidden 16 partition and tphdisk

After all I decided to stick to OpenBSD.
During install I created a hidden partition for suspend to disk. My installed memory is 4096M, so I did in fdisk a partition of 5120M (5G) which I thought would be far enough.
First problem: after formatting it according to the tphdisk short "howto", using df -h it shows as 4G and not 5G of size, but the thing I understand less is it says it has 1.4G used, that is 35%.
What's using this space? I need to make a file big enough for suspend, and now there's no space left.
I hope I don't need to reformat everything and calculate a 35% of space lost in this partition. Do I?

As usual, gosha, you have neglected to provide information needed for anyone help you. Let's start with the obvious, basic questions, first:
  1. Does this machine have a Phoenix BIOS? That's an apparent requirement, and from the one dmesg you've posted, it doesn't:
    Code:
    bios0 at mainbus0: AT/286+ BIOS, date 05/18/09, BIOS32 rev. 0 @ 0xfdc80, SMBIOS rev. 2.4 @ 0xe0010 (68 entries)
    bios0: vendor LENOVO version "6DET53WW (3.03 )" date 05/18/2009
    bios0: LENOVO 7457AC1
  2. What particular "howto" that you found somewhere on the Internet are you actually trying to follow?
  3. Did you follow it blindly, or did you make adjustments for your OS and environment?
  4. If you made adjustments, what alteration did you make?
It is time you read http://www.daemonforums.org/showthread.php?t=596 -- if you've read it once before, please re-read it, paying attention to sections a, b, and c.

Sorry, my apologies to all, I admit have been a bit abusive this days, but not on purpose. It won't happen again in the future.

Bios and suspend issues are very new and quite difficult to understand for me, although I had a look on some explanations (for example on Wikipedia) I still find all very confusing.
As you make me note, my Thinkpad x200 does not seem to have a Phoenix bios, so all I did I guess is useless.
Does it mean my hidden partition is also useless? How does suspend to disk actually work? Will it suspend to a system file? How do I find out? I did have look for information, but could not find anything better than "apm works out of the box" "fn+f4 works out of the box", which does not for me. also, on this site you have some installation guides, but all linux related:
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Instal..._ThinkPad_X200

I had followed this "howto" http://www.teuton.org/~ejm/t42p/index.shtml
probably foolishly since it is about another model.
And followed the instruction of the thpdisk.
But now I guess this is all useless.

Now, maybe I should open another thread for this, please tell me if I should.

Here is what I would like to work:
fn+f4 to suspend to ram
fn+f12 to suspend to disk

How does suspend to disk work exactly? I mean, does suspend to disk always need a hidden partition or will it work on system files? How do I find out?
If suspend to disk is not working at all I would be fine with having only suspend to ram, but pressing fn+f4 does nothing, and typing
Code:
zzz
or
Code:
zzz -S
will give me this message
Code:
Suspending system
but then nothing would happen, the console goes back to "$" or '#" and that's it.
I enabled apm at boot time with
Code:
ampd_flags=" -C"
and it seems to work fine, because if I tipe "apm" I get
Code:
Performance adjustment mode: cool running (1600 Mhz)
Here is my complete dmesg again:

I had an answer from misc@openbsd.org and it appears that suspend is not supported, but that a couple of devs are working on it
Let's hope for 4.6

4.6? No. -current is already beyond 4.6.

Your hardware is apparently ACPI-only. (APM does not appear within your dmesg.)
OpenBSD will use either ACPI or APM if both exist on the hardware. The unused feature will appear in the dmesg as "not configured". An admin can disable ACPI or APM to force the use of one or the other if both are on the hardware.
ACPI development has been ongoing and active for years in OpenBSD. But it is not to the point where suspend/resume or suspend-to-disk is operative. No matter which hardware feature is available, the user interface on the OS is apm(8) and apmd(8).

The "howto" you referenced does not have specific instructions for your hardware model, nor for the release of the OS you're using.

The tphdisk "instructions" that are produced by running the program give an example of configuring a FAT16 partition for use with the program. You appeared, in your first post, to have difficulty with this, due to the size of your partition. FAT16 is limited to 2GB. It is important to try to understand what the implications are of using a command that you see in instructions, or in a "howto". Blindy typing and hoping do not serve a responsible administrator well.

I agree it's been very stupid.

After all this, I'm asking myself: is suspend/resume that important? Maybe to carry around a laptop it's still better to switch it off.
I'll have to learn how to tell ion to start which apps in which workspace in which window, so that it will be similar to a resume.
