I tested with unmodified Linus' linux-2.6.29-rc8 source from kernel.org and Ubuntu's linux-source-2.6.28_2.6.28-11.36_all.deb, both self compiled with my test box config. loop-AES-v3.2e + 20090112.diff Both kernels seemed to work ok. No failures here. I dowloaded linux-source-2.6.28_2.6.28-11.36_all.deb from nearby .fi mirror http://www.nic.funet.fi/pub/mirrors/archive.ubuntu.com/pool/main/l/linux/ md5sum: 41d603022c136e37caac2b9f854d2dc6 linux-source-2.6.28_2.6.28-11.36_all.deb dc8ef59b8e2133d72e874660dcad68bf linux-source-2.6.28.tar.bz2 What is/was the exact kernel source version number that you used and where did you get it from? Who compiled your kernel sources and loop-AES module? And how?
