I successfully ran the test case against ubuntu20.9 in -proposed. I also verified that using losetup and mount on loop devices still works:
$ sudo losetup -f --show debian-stretch-DI-alpha7-amd64-netinst.iso /dev/loop0 $ sudo mount /dev/loop0 /mnt mount: block device /dev/loop0 is write-protected, mounting read-only $ ls /mnt autorun.inf debian [...] With the -proposed version, losetup -f also succeeds to use /dev/loop- control, so you can do the above a few times and it works with /dev/loop12 too. When moving /dev/loop-control out of the way, the above also works up to loop7, and then errors out with "losetup: could not find any free loop device" as expected. "losetup -a" correctly shows the bound devices/files. ** Tags removed: verification-failed ** Tags added: verification-needed ** Tags removed: verification-needed ** Tags added: verification-done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1640823 Title: [trusty] mount -o loop is limited to 8 loop devices To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/util-linux/+bug/1640823/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
