If you followed README instructions, including step 7 of "encrypting root partition", then there should be a loop.ko module in /boot/modules-KERNELRELEASE/ where KERNELRELEASE equals output of "uname -r" command. To copy that module using knoppix or other bootable/working installation, you can do this: su mkdir /mnt2 mkdir /mnt3 mount -t ext2 /dev/hda1 /mnt2 mount -t ext2 /dev/hda3 /mnt3 -o loop=/dev/loop0,encryption=AES128,gpgkey=/mnt2/rootkey.gpg mkdir /mnt2/modules-2.6.15 ^^^^^^ cp -p /mnt3/lib/modules/2.6.15/block/loop.ko /mnt2/modules-2.6.15/ ^^^^^^ ^^^^^^ umount /mnt2 umount /mnt3 And then reboot. -- 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/
