Thanks for the kind and informed reply.
My kernel is 3.12.14-4. I am no developer nor kernel configurator. Just a user. It seems this means I cannot use this for the foreseeable future.
What distribution are you using?
Your kernel is modern enough and should have the required functionality build in by default,if not,you should file a bug with the distribution.The reason why things do not work probably is because you are making a mistake somewhere.
Do you know any other script to mount a crypted container (contained in a file) that may work for a simple user like me.
Well if it does not exist I'll go on using trucrypt.
Any reason why you want to do this from a script? If you want the volume at be unlocked at boot time,i believe systemd has provisions to make it possible if you are running a systemd managed system.
There is a GUI tool called zuluCrypt[1] that will allow you to mount your truecrypt volume. Info on how to install binaries in fedora is here[2]
