loop device encryption with Fedora 11 and losetup -e

2009-09-29 Thread Patrick Mansfield
losetup -e. I'm running with the latest updates, kernel is 2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i686.PAE The only thing I can use is -e 1 or -E 1, losetup tells me that is just an XOR encryption. These fail: # losetup -e 2 /dev/loop0 ./test.image Password: ioctl: LOOP_SET_STATUS: Invalid argument # losetup -e aes /dev
