Not sure if that is the same bug.

I currently run feisty (kernel 2.6.20-14) and try to setup dm-crypt / LUKS

So far I did jitter my harddisk with sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/hda

Then I did install cryptsetup --> sudo apt-get install cryptsetup hashalot

Then I created a 160 GB partition: cfdisk /dev/hda

Then I loaded the kernel modules:
sudo modprobe aes dm-crypt dm_mod

Then I tried to setup LUKS

cryptsetup --verbose --verify-passphrase luksFormat /dev/hda1

but I only get this output:

hyper@xubi:/dev$ sudo cryptsetup --verbose --verify-passphrase luksFormat /dev/hda1

WARNING!
========
This will overwrite data on /dev/hda1 irrevocably.

Are you sure? (Type uppercase yes): YES
Enter LUKS passphrase:

hyper@xubi:/dev$ sudo cryptsetup --verbose --verify-passphrase luksFormat /dev/hda1

Check kernel for support for the aes-cbc-essiv:sha256 cipher spec and verify that /dev/hda1 contains at least 133 sectors.
Failed to write to key storage.

I even loaded the ase-i586 module but that didn't change anything...

I'm not sure if this belongs in here also.
