[Linux-disciples] Re: Creating an encrypted device

[Stephen R Laniel]

Hmm. Following the suggestion here:
http://shorl.com/gegritraprufremy

I did

dd if=/dev/urandom of=cryptdev bs=4096 count=1048576
losetup /dev/loop0 cryptdev
cryptsetup create volume1 /dev/loop0
mkfs.ext3 /dev/mapper/volume1
mount -t ext3 /dev/mapper/volume1 /mnt/cryptvol

The final command gave me the 'bad superblock, wrong fs
type, etc.' error.

Closer, I think ...
