        accessed in the /media/xy folder is decrypted. Consequently, it does not work
        if I use the following command to create a loop that I then mount in another
        qube, because it will not be decrypted there:

        $disp1: sudo losetup -r /dev/loop0 /dev/xvdi

    Why not

        sudo losetup -r /dev/loop0 /media/xy

    ?? That is what I do alwys, at works fine.  After that, the widget (for
    example) allows to attach /dev/loop0 to other qubes.  Best


Dear Bernhard,

this way it works only, if /media/xy would be a device. But it is an ordinary \
directory and losetup says: invalid argument.

Best regards
