Loop-mounting a knoppix-data.aes file

[krishna.murphy]

Thank you - it worked! One note to others following this - don't put any spaces by the commas, i.e. keep exactly the "-o encryption=aes,keybits=256,loop". That cost me some time. Hope others can profit by my mistakes!

Cheers!
Krishna

Change the command to :-

sudo mount .... -o encryption=aes,keybits=256,loop

Or you can use the method which is used in minirt.gz :-

# echo "passphrase" | losetup -p 0 -e aes -k 256 /dev/loop2 knoppix-data.aes
# mount /dev/loop2 /media/data
