 |
|
Hi everybody,
I was trying to mount an img file today without succeed.
I read couple posts about moutning img file, i did compile my kernel to support loopback device:
| Code: | CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_CRYPTOLOOP=y |
But when I tried to mount the img
| Code: | | mount -o loop /folder/name.img /mnt/fake_drive |
it returns an error message
| Code: | | mount: could not find any device /dev/loop# |
Could anyone help me out pls!
Thanks you
 |
