Hello all, I am having some problems setting up a crypted device, and to
me it seems to have with device mapper to do. I have loaded what modules
I know is necessary as you can see below and I have tried different
devices and pure files (ex /tmp/myimage which I created with dd
if=/dev/urandom).
I am running Debian Unstable and I have tested it with 1-2 week old
packages and fully upgraded. I also talked to google for an hour, be he
wasnt very nice to me, found no valuable information at all.
Any help appreciated.
