No, sorry, it was not the missing cryptotab. i put the stuff in that is already in the fstab: /dev/sdb4 / ext3 defaults 1 2 /dev/hda1 /boot ext2 defaults 1 2 /dev/cdrecorder /media/cdrecorder auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 /dev/cdrom /media/cdrom auto ro,noauto,user,exec 0 0 /dev/sda5 /data2 reiserfs defaults,noauto,user,loop=/dev/loop4,encryption=AES256,exec 0 0 /dev/sdb1 /data1 ext2 defaults,noauto,user,loop=/dev/loop3,encryption=AES256 0 0 devpts /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0 /dev/sdb5 /home ext2 defaults 1 2 /dev/sdb6 /opt ext3 defaults 1 2 proc /proc proc defaults 0 0 usbdevfs /proc/bus/usb usbdevfs noauto 0 0 /dev/sdb7 /usr reiserfs defaults 1 2 /dev/hda2 /var ext2 defaults 1 2 /dev/sdb3 swap swap pri=42 0 0 and it is not the missing /dev/loop4 or /dev/loop3 in the /dev/ path. They are there allright! Any further ideas?
