Re: Fwd: ioctl: LOOP_SET_STATUS: Invalid argument
Assuming /dev/hdb is the cd you burned from crypt.iso,
perhaps I'm missing something but I'm not sure that
losetup line is the correct way to set up a loop
device from an encrypted cd? dmesg says it's looking
for a FAT filesystem.
Does the one-step mount line as per the README work?
