Hi all,
Does anyone else use loop-aes on Fedora Core 4? I upgraded last week,
and after installing loop-aes-v3.0d and building a new util-linux rpm, I
cannot mount my encrypted filesystem. I've been using loop-aes since
the FC1 days without issue. I'm using the following key and losetup:
$ wc -l keys
64 keys
$ cat keys | /sbin/losetup -p 0 -e AES128 /dev/loop3 /dev/hdb4
When I try to mount, I get:
$ mount /dev/loop3 /mnt/storage
mount: you must specify the filesystem type
e.g. somehow, it's not decrypting my partition properly. It's
definitely doing _something_, though:
$ head -c 60 /dev/hdb4 | hexdump
0000000 6560 3137 ae41 f075 911a 0592 3878 9a8d
0000010 bdc4 6f8a a2bb d69c c422 08af 0466 342e
0000020 838b b4fe dbdb 9827 74a0 15e6 c3f9 43f5
0000030 6f90 f9c3 5698 e25a 3fcd e43a
$ head -c 60 /dev/loop3 | hexdump
0000000 d816 cb3d 7c92 f1b9 b26b c58b 6c38 8338
0000010 a564 c7f4 1d23 5d2d 512b 2194 70e2 1b21
0000020 e08d a6bf b670 fa8e 1496 fc82 5590 d570
0000030 b47f b02a a758 3be0 e26f 4f2d
On the other hand, I have an encrypted filesystem on my USB stick which
mounts fine, though it only uses 1 key (for compatability with CrossCrypt):
$ cat secure/key.unix.txt | gpg | wc -l
1
$ cat secure/key.unix.txt | gpg | /sbin/losetup -p 0 -e AES256
/dev/loop2 secure/image.dat
Thanks,
Bill
