It works.
Does it perform package upgrade? The comments are rather scary:

Hi, I have installed Linux mint 15 with Mint4Win as Dual boot
with Windows 7.
Then upgraded it to Mint 16 and it was running fine.
But when I upgrade to Mint 17 (Qiana), after restarting the
partition loop0 (or loopback0 or something like that) fails to
load.
It shows an error like, Press I to ignore, S to skip or M for
manual recovery.
Please tell me a way to fix this.
Or let me know if it is not possible.

Looks like my case. Are fstab and mtab replaced during upgrade?
You should drop Mint, they have a quite disruptive policy, but
they are kinda unique in the Linux world. Better choice in the
Mint world would be LMDE:

You simply made the wrong choice in the beginning.
