Thank you. We haven't tested this ourselves yet. The only feedback I have heard until now is, that the tape kernel is looping at bootup, so this kernel should also be avoided. I have one loopback-mount problem for newer kernel images left, then I hope we can upload a new kernel. Though this is going out today, it is at the moment delayed until sometimes next week. cu, Florian La Roche
