lphdisk can create such a partition for you (or the tool coming on the HP CD deleting the entire drive).
I have made the experience that hibernation stops to work when GRUB was installed into the bootsector. When installing it into the MBR all things are fine and Fn+F12 suspends to disk. (I have heard reports about a Dell Inspiron 4000, where the opposite situation is the case)
If you have installed the bootloader on hdaX already, you can try to overwrite the first 512 byte with \0 (yes; it's a dangerous operation).
