Hi Edwin,

today I had exactly the same problem on my potato box with kernel
version 2.4.2. So I tried to reboot with kernel 2.2.18 and it worked
without any problems. I'm afraid there is something wrong with the
loop module in kernel 2.4.2 or maybe an incompatibility with the
version of mount from potato.

Bye
