Package: base
Severity: normal

I have created a filesystem on a USB stick with woody using the
cryptoloop feature in the Linux kernel like this:

  $ losetup -e serpent -k 128 /dev/loop0 /dev/sda1
  $ mke2fs /dev/loop0

Since I upgraded to sarge, I can no longer access the filesystem:

  $ mount -t ext2 /dev/sda1 /mnt
  mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1,
  missing codepage or other error

When I boot the old woody system with the same kernel, it works
fine.  I also tried to chroot into the woody system from sarge,
but that did not help.

I *can* create new encrypted filesystems with sarge and mount them
as usual, but the ones created with woody are inaccessible.

It may have something to do with how the encryption key is
determined.
