Though not entirely sure what I was doing, I tried adding the following to modules.dep: /lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386/kernel/drivers/block/loop_blowfish.o: /lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386/kernel/drivers/block/loop_serpent.o: /lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386/kernel/drivers/block/loop_twofish.o: Modprobe then gave no errors, and `make tests` passed AOK with "*** Test results ok ***" Is this all ok then? --- Phil H <philtickle200@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Err ..
