I see from the loop-aes README that to upgrade to a newer version you first remove the old loop.o with rmmod. I'm running a Knoppix-based livecd distro all from RAM, so the existing out-of-date (loop-aes v1.6i-1) loop.o module is in two places: /KNOPPIX/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/block/loop.o and /ramdisk/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/block/loop.o Presumably I can remove the live one in ramspace and compile & install an updated loop.o on the ramdisk, which will then work until it is lost when I reboot? But rmmod loop.o says the "module is not loaded". (?) __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
