Re: loop-aes boot failure

Hi,

Jari, thanks for pointing out the filename discrepancy.  I had been
generating the ISOs from a good filesystem tree and never thought that
something was getting mangled by mkisofs.  It turns out that I was
using the example isolinux syntax from the syslinux distribution,
which doesn't enable rockridge extensions by default.....  As you can
imagine, that caused filenames to be truncated to 8.3, breaking
losetup linkage.  It might be a good idea to add this tidbit to your
readme so someone else doesn't have to go through the pain I did.

Thanks for your help, all is working now exactly as expected :)

Mike
