I've done this a few times at least... there's just one thing that doesn't work to well, ... resizing the underlying volume space without re-losetup'ing the loop device... e.g. if resize the underlying logical LVM volume or fileimage, you'll have to delete the loop device and losetup it again... I didn't have the time to fix this in the loop device driver, but if someone wants to, it's quite easy.... regards, -- Herbert Valerio Riedel / Phone: (EUROPE) +43-1-58801-18840 Email: hvr@hvrlab.org / Finger hvr@gnu.org for GnuPG Public Key GnuPG Key Fingerprint: 7BB9 2D6C D485 CE64 4748 5F65 4981 E064 883F 4142
