Yes, if the file you're looping back to is on a journalled filesystem, or
is a partition.

You use the losetup -k (or --keybits) option.
Eg. losetup -e aes -k 256 ...

AFAIK, This reads as: ``Don't think journalling buys you anything
Hello,
I set out to create an encrypted partition using my new 2.6.1 custom
