Re: [PLUG] /proc/crypto/cipher

Oh yeah, forgot one cipher (which might be the best one to use anyway). AES is in a different directory then the other modules (not sure why).

	# ls /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/arch/i386/crypto/
	aes-i586.ko

And it loads (on my system) with a simple:

	# modprobe aes

I would suggest using it as your cipher instead of blowfish.

	# losetup -e aes /dev/loop1 /path/to/file.img

I will eventually switch over to aes, but again, anytime you make a change, it is a big PITA.
