Hi.

I wanted to setup a blowfish encrypted file which is then mounted via
loopback. So I did:

losetup -e blowfish /dev/loop0 /file
Password:
mkfs -t ext3 /dev/loop0
mount /dev/loop0 /mnt
<error unknown fs type>
<from here something was seriously broken... could not reboot anymore>

system is:
Linux no 2.6.0-test7 #8 Sun Oct 26 17:00:49 CET 2003 ppc GNU/Linux

(benh rsync tree)
