hey,

yesterday i had the idea to encrypt a partition. :)
kernel got patched by jars-cryptoloop-patch (i am using 2.4.22 vanilla)
all went ok, attached partition to loop0, used twofish, formatted with reiserfs.
ok, i mounted it and .. it works!
so i tested reattaching at, and no error occurs.
ok > 15gb of data take their place in this new encrypted filesystem ..
summarized:
losetup -e twofish /dev/loop0 /dev/hda6
mkreiserfs /dev/loop0
mount -t reiserfs /dev/loop0 /mnt/crypt

reading/writing data works fine.

some hours later -> systemcrash (don't ask why *g*)

after a new start, i wasn't able to mount the partition
mount -t reiserfs /dev/loop0 /mnt/crypt
-> mount: Not a directory
loop0 was attached, password is correct .. otherwise an error about bad superblock etc would occur.
kernellog says:
for (loop(7,0))
is_tree_node: node level 44722 does not match to the expected one 3
loop(7,0):vs-5150: search_by_key: invalid format found in block 30245. Fsck?
loop(7,0):vs-13070: reiserfs_read_inode2: i/o failure occurred trying to find stat data of [1 2 0x0 SD]

while the crash and logically reboot the partition was known to fstab, as ntfs (ro), so no filesystemcheck should corrupt it.

hope you can help

thanks

I've got the same problem! But my system doesn't crash. It happened after a reboot.
