/dev/mapper and Mapper Kernel Driver is Missing in Whiite Mike 5 bootmii

Hi guys,

Its looking quite good with the Wii Linux Crypto Filesverver with  
Whiite Mike 5 Bootmii (on a patched boot2 3.4E Wii). Just the crypto  
(luks) is causing trouble. I can't crypt with luksformat -t ext  
/dev/sda1 because he told me that the kernel won't support  
aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 . Error: Failed to setup dm-crypt mapping.

More errors from dmsetup targets:

Command failed: No key available with this passphrase.
dmcrypt targets says:
No device mapper found.
Is device mapper driver missing from kernel?
Failure to communicate with kernel-device mapper driver.
/proc/misc: Not entry for device-mapper driver found.
Incompatible libdevmapper 1.02.27(compat) and kernel driver.

After some google this came out:

You are seeing
Failed to setup dm-crypt mapping.
Failed to read from key storage
dm-crypt does not work properly.
1. Check if you have a /dev/ tree, including /dev/mapper/control.
ghanima:~$ ls -l /dev/mapper/control
crw-r----- 1 root root 10, 63 Jan 1 1970 /dev/mapper/control
(char device, major 10, minor 63)^
If it's missing, you probably lack a complete /dev tree, so copy it  
somewhere or use devfs.
2. Check if you have device mapper and dm-crypt included in the kernel. Run
dmsetup targets
If don't, see a line like "crypt v1.1.0" or the command fails, compile  
device mapper and the crypt target into your kernel.
3. Check if you have the cipher you want to use included in the kernel. Run
cat /proc/crypto
4. If you are using <2.6.10, supply -c "aes-plain" on partition creation.

Looks like that Whiite hasn't the dev mapper and /dev/mapper/controll  
in. Is there a whiite version or a possibilty (maybe with modprobe) to  
get it in there? Or must I switch to something other like gentoo?

Its a complicated question for a guy with little low level experience  
like me. I would be realy happy if you would answer the question^^.

Btw. free -- says there 64 MB Ram and a Buffer of 64 MB (and no swap  
space). Does the buffer realy exist or is it just an additional  
Information that there are 64 MB ram?

The data access via ssh works quite good btw. Thank you for your hard  
work creating gc linux and for the hard work to hack the wii (TP  
Exploit 4tw ;)).
