You can try to use "major:minor" pair instead (of the device above), but it can sause problem if it is dynamic (it shouldn't be in this environment though).

Some major vendors even reimplemented dm-crypt with hardcoded algorithms to speed up on their crappy hw. Obviously without contact mainline kernel developers, and breaking all other interfaces as a side effect etc. So do not be surprised that we will ignore any support questions if someone is doing such things, nobody really know what source code was used to compile the kernel. _______________________________________________ dm-crypt mailing list dm-crypt@xxxxxxxx http://www.saout.de/mailman/listinfo/dm-crypt
