Hi, thanks for the loop module. I am trying to use to mount a file with no success. After installing the loop module, I create a file, "sys.minix", using dd I initialize it, then using losetup I associate it with /dev/loop0, finally, I use mkfs.minix on /dev/loop0 to format it. when I try to mount it I get an error: -bash-3.2# mount /dev/loop0 /opt/mount mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on /opt/mount failed: Invalid argument Being more explicit about the filesystem gives me this: -bash-3.2# mount -t minix /dev/loop0 /opt/mount mount: mounting /dev/loop0 on /opt/mount failed: No such device Any idea on what may be the problem?
