Currently only "mount -o encryption=AES128,gpgkey=filename", "losetup -e AES128 -K filename" and "swapon -a" can set up loop in multi-key mode with MD5 IV. If you are trying to set up encrypted swap partition, "swapon -a" with "loop=/dev/loop6,encryption=AES128" options in /etc/fstab will set up loop in multi key mode with random keys. If you are trying to set up encrypted /tmp partition, you may want to take a look at tmpfs file system that uses encrypted swap. -- Jari Ruusu 1024R/3A220F51 5B 4B F9 BB D3 3F 52 E9 DB 1D EB E3 24 0E A9 DD - Linux-crypto: cryptography in and on the Linux system Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-crypto/
