Hi, I'm wondering if encrypted images are forward/backward compatible between 2.2.x and 2.4.x. I have a test image created in 2.2.18 (kerneli version 2.2.17.9, created on 2.2.13.2) and works well. Trying to mount the images in 2.4.0-test12 fails. Is it supposed to be compatible or is 2.4.x support incomplete? Here is some output from the kernel: loop: enabling 8 loop devices cryptoapi: Registered serpent (7) cryptoapi: Registered serpent-cbc (65543) VFS: Can't find an ext2 filesystem on dev loop(7,1). Also, does the current util-linux patch support creating crypted images in AES/Rijndael format? I tried modifying util-linux (specifically lomount.c) to support RIJNDAEL but it did not help.
