Could someone clarify what Jari means in the 8th step of the README by:
"
Reboot system from rescue floppy / cdrom / other partition on your
system, so that the partition you are about to encrypt is _not_ mounted.
Note: you must use loop-AES' loop.o module and loop-AES modified losetup
program for this.
insmod loop
losetup -e AES128 /dev/loop5 /dev/hda2
dd if=/dev/hda2 of=/dev/loop5 bs=8192 conv=notrunc
sync
mount -t ext2 /dev/loop5 /mnt
"
I mean what is needed to do the trick? Perhaps a disk with 3 partitions?
I think i have to build (besides /boot and / partitions) a rescue disk
with same kernel version of my / so the loop-2.4.7.o can be used . . .
Is that right?
Kostas.
