From a discussion here last week I think those disk errors are
relating to the HPA (Host Protected Areas). I am 100% sure what it's
all about, but as far as I can tell, its related to the hidden space
the Thinkpad maintains on disk for diagnostic tools and Windows
recovery.
I believe it's possible to disable it but I suspect that might
interfere with the Windows side of things. I think I'll wait for a fix
(which I belive someone is working on, but I can't find any Bugzilla
entries!).
BTW: I notice that Ubuntu 5.10 live cd can suspend/unsuspend my
Thinkpad T41p, but FC5 to-date cannot (that however might have
something to do with it being a Live CD).

Well suspend works fine on my T41 thinkpad, it is resume that kills my
system ;). In my case it resumes fine everything works for a few
seconds to a minute and then I get major disk errors in dmesg, disk mounts
read-only then system crashes, but not before I get disk corruption :(.
Sounds like your problem might be a bit different?
I opened a bugzilla on my issue here:
