I use hibernation my self. My root partition has an ext3 filesystem on it, but i think your problem lies elsewhere. Hibernation dumps the ram onto a swapdisk. So that should work out of the box, provided your swapdisk is at least as big as your ram. Now you also have to tell grub to resume the file. I use lilo, there the trick is to add resume to the append line. I guess it's something similar with grub. If you don't do this, the swapdisk will not be reused as swap, and thus you can't hibernate the next time.
