The kernel-xen (and probably the rest of the kernel packages) only support 8 loop devices. It seems that if the loop support were compiled as a module it would support a boot option to increase the maximum number of loop devices. Would it be possible to update the config to compile the loop device support as a module? I need this functionality so that I can boot a number of virtual machines using loop back devices.
Thank you.

BTW: I'm not sure what this has to do with packaging - opensuse-factory would have been the better list ;-)
