[opensuse] oS 13.2: losetup not working - permission denied?

I know I've used loopback mounts on openSUSE before, but today they aren't working for me. As an example: === + ls -l /mnt-ewf/ewf1 -r--r--r-- 1 root root 1000555581440 Dec 3 16:33 /mnt-ewf/ewf1 + sudo /usr/sbin/losetup /dev/loop0 /mnt-ewf/ewf1 -o 209735680 root's password: losetup: /mnt-ewf/ewf1: failed to set up loop device: Permission denied === I have the loop module loaded:

sudo /sbin/lsmod | grep loop loop 28312 0

I tried "modprobe loop" just in case, but it doesn't help. What am I forgetting? Thanks Greg -- Greg Freemyer -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
