then this was still a plain cryptsetup version, without the luks support. would it be possible for you, to test some older versions of cryptsetup? interesting would be cryptsetup 20050111-4 (last version without luks, currently in testing), 1.0.1-8 (first implementation with luks) and if these work, also 1.0.1-16. greetings jonas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
