there are 4 modules:


/lib/modules/2.6.32-gentoo-r24/block/loop.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-gentoo-r24/block/loop_blowfish.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-gentoo-r24/block/loop_serpent.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.32-gentoo-r24/block/loop_twofish.ko

only modprobe loop_blowfish is ok.

amd64box src # modprobe loop
FATAL: Error inserting loop (/lib/modules/2.6.32-gentoo-r24/block/loop.ko): Invalid module format

amd64box src # modprobe loop_serpent
FATAL: Error inserting loop_serpent (/lib/modules/2.6.32-gentoo-r24/block/loop_serpent.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

amd64box src # modprobe loop_twofish
FATAL: Error inserting loop_twofish (/lib/modules/2.6.32-gentoo-r24/block/loop_twofish.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)

Have I done something wrong?version of kernel too old?

I think you cant use it if you have AES support built in kernel. There are symbols conflict because of that. amd64 done

 That's right.
