yeah - gentoo is in the US, in Oregon...

The cipher does not exist, or a cipher module needs to be loaded into the 
kernel

RH rsp. Fedora is more fair; the man page for losetup simply says that nothing 
beyond XOR is supported!
That would have saved me a lot of time; fairness is not apparently everybody's 
business...

Well - it's time  for selling the 'bleeding edge hardware', look on the 
openbsd site what hardware is supported, and post a link for this wonderful 
experience after struggling for some days on the openbsd mailing list...

Goodbye linuz
