The Sarge losetup uses rmd160 to hash the passphrase, whereas the loop-AES patched losetup on Knoppix probably uses sha512. You can try to explicitly specify rmd160 with the -H option, like "losetup -e blowfish256 -H rmd160 /dev/loop0 ..." cheers, Max -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
