Hi, I use a Debian testing system with a 3ware 9500S-LP4 controller on a 2.6.17 kernel. I use the kernel module to control the raid controller. I recently assigend two RAID5 partitions to /dev/sda1 & /dev/sda2. The sda2 is supposed to hold an encrypted system. When I tried to encrypt the sda2 partition, I get the following error: sv3000:/cdrom/packages/3dm2/linux/x86# cryptsetup -c aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 -y -s256 luksFormat /dev/sda2 WARNING! ======== Daten auf /dev/sda2 werden unwiderruflich überschrieben. Are you sure? (Type uppercase yes): YES Enter LUKS passphrase: Verify passphrase: Failed to setup dm-crypt key mapping. Check kernel for support for the aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 cipher spec and verify that /dev/sda2 contains at least 258 sectors. Failed to write to key storage.

Any idea about the problem?
