Has anyone else run into this? I am using standard 4.2 (should be able to run 24 sfs files) with about 8 or 9 sfs files loaded at start-up... I also use multiple truecrypt volumes, but for some reason when I try to load more then 2 at a time, I get the message that I have no more loop devices, though with only 8-9 or even 10 sfs's I should have plenty of loops left over from bootup...

Truecrypt 6.3
Hi there,
Any chance of posting a truecrypt 6.3 pet?
Thanks in advance.

I downloaded and installed the 6.3a pet in my standard Puppy 4.3.1 (kernel 2.6.30.5). I then created a volume on a flash drive. When I attempted to mount the volume, I got this message:
I didn't notice any dependency mentioned when I installed truecrypt. It didn't help to reboot.
I googled a bit and noticed TrueCrypt requires the device mapper. Did this somehow get forgotten in the pet? But if so, why no dependency warning from the package manager?
Code: Select all
TrueCrypt
No such file or directory:
dmsetup

no device mapper in puppy - but disabling this makes tc work
there is no genuine device mapper support in puppy - just disable it in truecrypt options.PaulBx1 wrote:I downloaded and installed the 6.3a pet in my standard Puppy 4.3.1 (kernel 2.6.30.5). I then created a volume on a flash drive. When I attempted to mount the volume, I got this message:

I have been using Truecrypt for a number of years
me too !
me too !and when I upgraded to the latest version (6.1a) I got the same problem as you did.
I didn't find any solution.However was able to find a solution that was submitted to the forum (but can't find it again!).
YES...! your solution is good....that is run also...The solution was to run Truecrypt; click Settings; Preferences; System Integration; then click the box in Kernel Services ("do not use kernel cryptographic services").
Now I will ask to the french people what it mean:
Is that important?Disabling the use of kernel cryptographic services can degrade performance.
Many thanks
Daniel
truecrypt-6.3a.pet works with Lupu 5.1
Outstanding! truecrypt-6.3a.pet works with Lupu 5.1
Be sure to still disable the use of kernel cryptographic services.

Anyone up for a Truecrypt 7.0a pet?
There is that recipe for a home-cooked 6.3a, mentioned earlier:
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=52463
I might give that a try but if something goes awry I will have a hard time with it.
I just tried the 7.0a installer and it first says it needs device mapper and fuse library. I tried to install those from the package manager but was only partly successful. Tried running it anyway with "truecrypt -m nokernelcrypto" but just got a complaint about there not being any /proc/mounts.

I'm still stinking of noob-ness. I've used TrueCrypt on Windoze and liked it. I'm currently using the latest greatest Puppy Linux and would like to encrypt some USB, external drives etc.
I tried the link to get the link to download the pet and got the file not found error.
Thanks - James

Just in case this turns up in a search for someone else like it did for me-
After messing about with installing the pet then the installer from truecrypt to get it to work-
The easiest way is just to download it from here and save it someplace. No install necessary- just click it to run.

I have Truecrypt 7.1 here:
http://www.complianceman.com/puppy2
It should have the Menu entry under Filesystem.

I've already ticked it in Truecrypt menu :
I can create a volume.
I can mount / explore a volume in Truecrypt.

It is posted in this thread:boxR wrote:Thanks slavvo67, but I've already downloaded this package and it doesn't work for puppy lucid.
I wonder if I could find some missing dependencies in the previous one.
Unfortunately, truecrypt-6.3a.pet is missing.
