loop_twofish.o module can be used in SuSE compatible mode like this:

losetup -e twofish160 -H rmd160 -I 1 /dev/loop0 /dev/hda9
  or    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^
mount -t ext2 /dev/hda9 /mnt9 -o loop,encryption=twofish160,phash=rmd160,loinit=1
                                      ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^

SuSE compatible mode is not the default, so SuSE compatibility needs to be
enabled with above underlined losetup/mount options.
