Subject: Cryptoloop 2.4.x and 2.6.1
Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2004 16:58:18 +0100	[thread overview]

Hi

Seems strange. I use the crypto-loop-devices with cipher serpent for a few
years.
With kernel 2.4.21 i use the patch patch-int-2.4.21.0 or patch-int-2.4.19 
and mount --version 2.11u with patches. Everything works fine.
My /etc/fstab is:
/dev/md9     /crypto      ext3 
defaults,rw,nodev,noauto,loop,encryption=serpent,offset=1024,errors=remount-ro

if i call "mount /crypto" mount ask me for the keysize for the serpent 
cipher: Available keysizes (bits): 128 192 256
Keysize: 192
And then ask for the password.

With the until-linux resp. mount 2.12, no question for the keysize and with
same password, the mount fails.

I need to test with 2.6.1, if the API from util-linux has changed amd maybe 
works with 2.6.1..
