Comment 1 Stefano Bagnara 2004-04-14 17:59:19 UTC
this work for me.
Try "modprobe cryptoloop" and "modprobe aes" first.

I'm using test2 with default (not up2dated) packages (kernel
2.6.3-2.1.253.2.1smp )

Comment 2 Elliot Lee 2004-05-13 19:29:36 UTC
This is a dupe of a bug I can't remember right now.

Comment 3 Hermann Schichl 2004-05-21 22:26:40 UTC
I have an SRPM file (for Fedora Core 2) containing the proper patches.
However, I cannot upload it due to size limitations on attachments. If
somebody wants to get it, please send mail.

Comment 4 Elliot Lee 2004-05-24 19:01:28 UTC
Please upload the patches themselves to bugzilla.
