my code does

SECTORS=`blockdev --getsize /dev/hda3`

echo 0 $SECTORS crypt aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 $ROOTKEY 0 /dev/hda3 0 \
         |dmsetup create root

so this is not compatible with acrypto I guess :(
any special reason why acrypto is limited this way?

guess that limitation needs to go away before it can be added to
the linux kernel, or some workaround so dm-crypt will fall back on
not using acrypto or something like that in order to not brake existing
and working installations.

Thanks, Andreas
