Known problem.
Go
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/people/axboe
and take the latest loop-? patch from there. Let Jens Axboe know if it works
or if you still have problems. Particularry, if you can reliably reproduce
the problem you referred.
I hear the patch should get merged to 2.4.1ac soon.

And, your address zole@diamondhead.hesbynett.no does not work. I'm kinda
puzzled about how you expect people to reply you. With smoke signals?
