Hi, I have compiled and run my linux-2.2.18 + crypto API . I've done all the setting as explained in the Linux Disk Encryption How-To. Well , it works but I thinks there is something wrong because I am not prompted when mounting the /dev/loop0 . What is the problem here ? I 've done all . insmod loop.o insmod loop_fish2.o losetup -e twofish /dev/loop0 ~user/.crypto #### (+ password) mke2fs /dev/loop0 mkdir ~/crypto mount -t ext2 /dev/loop0 ~user/crypto ###( The /dev/loop0 could be mounted without password ) Thanks. Hopefully somebody can explain this to me . Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
