I had this same problem happen to me, except on a new install. I noticed that update-initramfs failed initially because of a typo in /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/resume: RESUME=/dev/sdb5\040(delete) It complained about the '(' so I deleted the whole "(delete)" thing. Ran update-initramfs and added the line to the boot options and it worked fine.
