I`d suggest to backup the contents of your homefolder to an external hdd and a fresh install of the OS with "/home" on sdb. You have to choose "something else" when installing.

To create the swapfile you can follow this guide: (https://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=42&t=284100&p=1569661&hilit=fail%20after%20hibernation#p1569661)

You will find there a line "SIZE=4",set the number to the double of your ram. Be patient,some steps need a little time to be worked down. This is always the perfect solution for me.
