Hi all - What valid encryptions can be used under Fedora 11 with losetup? Do I need to manually load the corresponding kernel module? Loading aes_i586 and/or aes_generic made no difference.
modprobe cryptoloop
Are there now better alternatives than using "losetup -e"? I keep getting EINVAL while trying to use "losetup -e". I'm running with the latest updates, kernel is 2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i686.PAE The only thing I can use is "-e 1" or "-E 1", losetup tells me that is just an XOR encryption. These fail: # losetup -e 2 /dev/loop0 ./test.image Password: ioctl: LOOP_SET_STATUS: Invalid argument # losetup -e aes /dev/loop0 ./test.image Password: ioctl: LOOP_SET_STATUS: Invalid argument These both work (losetup -e and -E seem to be treated the same): # losetup -e 1 /dev/loop0 ./test.image Password: # losetup /dev/loop0 /dev/loop0: [fd02]:3918266 (/home/test/data_images/test.image), encryption XOR (type 1) # losetup -d /dev/loop0 # losetup -E 1 /dev/loop0 ./test.image Password: # losetup /dev/loop0 /dev/loop0: [fd02]:3918266 (/home/test/data_images/test.image), encryption XOR (type 1) -- Patrick Mansfield
