hi, i've installed loop-AES-v1.7a. the installation of the module is ok. i can load it. i'm running on a debian, the kernel 2.4.18, gcc version 2.95.4 and util-linux 2.11n-4. When i run the #make tests in the directory loop-aes, i have this error: losetup: invalid option -- H Who can help me, thank you very much! You remark that i 'm a newbie on linux, so sorry maybe for the simple question. there is the entire message: noru:/home/qwe/telechargement/loop-AES-v1.7a# make tests dd if=/dev/zero of=test-file1 bs=1024 count=10 10+0 records in 10+0 records out cp test-file1 test-file3 make test-part2 CT=XOR ITER=0 HF=sha256 MD=7ccb0383a96c720652cfe7c73371ea91 TF=test-file1 PSW=12345678901234567890 make[1]: Entering directory `/home/qwe/telechargement/loop-AES-v1.7a' echo 12345678901234567890 | losetup -p 0 -e XOR -H sha256 -C 0 /dev/loop7 test-file1 losetup: invalid option -- H usage: losetup loop_device # give info losetup -d loop_device # delete losetup [ options ] loop_device file # setup where options include --offset <num>, -o <num> start at offset <num> into file. --pass-fd <num>, -p <num> read passphrase from file descriptor <num> instead of the terminal. --encryption <cipher>, -e <cipher> encrypt with <cipher>.
