Configure the initramfs

When an initramfs with the base hook is used, which is the default, the resume hook is required in /etc/mkinitcpio.conf. Whether by label or by UUID, the swap partition is referred to with a udev device node, so the resume hook must go after the udev hook. This example was made starting from the default hook configuration:

Remember to rebuild the initramfs for these changes to take effect.

run mkinitcpio -p linux to rebuild the initramfs

rebuild initramfs

sudo mkinitcpio -p linux
