I have a previously created cryptoloop filesystem (made under a different linux distro). Unfortunately it seems that losetup, or mount distributed with SuSE wont mount it because the password I used for the encrypted filesystem isnt at least 20 characters long. Every time I try, i get the following error:
Error: Password must be at least 20 characters.
Does anyone know a way to get around this?
I also have an old encripted partition, but it was created under suse 8.1, I think. Suse 9.1 complains about the password, certainly, and also about the format, but it gets mounted anyway. I have it defined in '/etc/cryptotab', as: /dev/loop0 /dev/hdb7 /cripta reiserfs twofish defaults then, the script '/etc/init.d/boot.crypto start' mounts it during boot (or manually). In the fstab file, I have it as 'ignore': /dev/hdb7 /cripta ignore -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
