I have just compiled the vanilla kernel 2.4.21 with the patches loop-jari-2.4.21.0 and patch-int-2.4.21.0, and it will still not run when Twofish is compiled into the kernel !?. Compiled as a module it works OK.
The error message is as always: "ioctl: LOOP_SET_STATUS: invalid argument"
Have you actually tried it, with Twofish compiled into the kernel ?
I have aes and twofish compiled into the kernel on 2.4.20 and it works fine.
I am right in the process of compiling kernel 2.4.21. I'll let you know how it goes. So far everything looks good, the patches all went in cleanly.
From the error message, I have to ask, "did you compile loopback into the kernel too" I think you may need to. There may be some glitch if you make loop a module but put encryption built-in. Just a guess. I'll be done testing by tommorrow.
Yes it's there. If not, I could not run losetup .. /dev/loop0 succesfully (with Twofish compiled as a module). Bo
