Hi all. I'm rather new to linux crypto, so any help with this problem would
be appreciated. Here's what I did.
a) Installed kernel 2.4.18, all necessary loopback patches, crypto patches,
etc.
b) Compiled the crypto modules right into the kernel
c) Compiled new kernel, everything works fine. Startup lists installed
ciphers, I can view them in /proc.
d) Downloaded util-linux-2.11n source
e) Patched with util-linux-2.11n.patch
f) tried to compile mount, umount, losetup
f) got an error about redefining dev_t
g) found a script to fix dev_t in loop.h, ran that.
f) Recompiled mount, umount, losetup - works now.
g) Replaced existing /bin/ programs with the new ones.
h) Created a new crypto FS as in the FAQ (mounted it to a loopback device,
then mounted that in a folder.) Worked fine.
I) Copied files to the mounted directory.
No problems, can run ls and they show up.
now here's the problem.
umount /mycryptodir
OR
umount /dev/loop0
both lock the system hard. Total freeze, numlock doesn't even work. I have
to cycle power to get the thing to reboot.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
