Hi Markus,
Thank you for your help.

Here is what I get once I run build-initrd.sh (after having edited build-initrd.sh to point DESTINATIONPREFIX to the mount point of my usb key rather than /boot):
knoppix@Knoppix:/ramdisk/home/knoppix/loop-AES-v3.2c$ sudo ./build-initrd.sh ../ek/initrd.conf

This is what I got:
knoppix@Knoppix:/ramdisk/home/knoppix$ sudo mount /dev/sdd ek
knoppix@Knoppix:/ramdisk/home/knoppix$ cp ek/initrd.gz .
knoppix@Knoppix:/ramdisk/home/knoppix$ gzip -d initrd.gz

I can see hda4 and sda in there. Does this otherwise look ok?

Here it is:
BOOTDEV=/dev/sda # partitionless USB-stick device
BOOTTYPE=vfat
CRYPTROOT=/dev/hda4
ROOTTYPE=ext3
CIPHERTYPE=AES256
LOADNATIONALKEYB=1
INITIALDELAY=6
The only change between this and the earlier version was replacing "hda3" with "hda4".
I have noticed two things when I try to boot from the key.
First, once I enter the passphrase and hit enter, there isn't that usual delay which occurs when I mistype the passphrase: instead, I get the
Command "/lib/losetup -e AESS256 -I 0 -K /lib/rootkey.gpg -G /lib /dev/loop5 /dev/hda4" returned error
message instantaneously; as soonas I press 'enter'. It is not usually like that when I mistype the passphrase.
Second, the *first* time that I enter the passphrase after booting, before the "Command /lib/losetup [...]" message one can read "Error: gpg key file decryption failed". However, in the attempts that follow only "Command /lib/losetup [...]" shows up. (I don't know if this is important, I just noticed it.)
Again thanks for any hint on what I am doing wrong.
