I do know how to use loop devices. ;-) Now you mention it, "losetup" without encryption works fine. This: losetup -e blowfish /dev/loop0 /tmp/test.img fails with "bad address" if the blowfish module is not loaded, and causes a kernel panic if it is (and now I have to go home to reset my machine. :-( ). The only thing I can see that the ppdd patch has done here is to increase LO_KEY_SIZE from 32 to 1844; the rest should be as in vanilla 2.6.13 (though at some point I'll recompile without patches and see if that changes anything). imc - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
