 Well, I did a cleanup in the cloop code, merged it in 2.6.7, and
enabled it in Kconfig:

 The patch is here:

http://www.telecentros.sp.gov.br/capitulino/patches/linux/2.6/cloop/2.6.7/

 I did it for another project some weeks ago, sorry for not posting
it here before (But, as far as I can remember, I sent it to knopper).

PS: Its a patch again't the kernel, you will have to get the standard
tools from knopper page.

 Hope it helps,

 Well, I think  you can get some "hunks" in the Kconfig, but
you can try that.

 If you got problems, I can merge it for you (if necessary, of
course). Let me know.

PS: You can write in private.

Problem installing cloop

[Lei Yang]

Hello,

I was trying to get
cloop-2.0.1 built and installed on a SuSe 9.1 box with kernel version
2.6.5 . I followed all the instructions in    
http://www.knopper.net/download/knoppix/cloop.README

When 'make', I had to comment out the line asking for conf.vars as the
file cannot be found and comment the lines where it was looking for
modversions.h. Ok, it all compiled after this. But now when trying to
'modprobe cloop', or 'insmod /path/to/cloop.ko', I get a 'Invalid module
format'.

I also tried a
http://d.linux-bg.org/download/distros/VS_Live/src/cloop-2.01.4.p2.tgz
Since I found others have got similar problem and there is only a link
as suggestion. This doesn't work at all, only bring me more errors:( 

TIA! This has been bothering me for a few days.

Lei
