Encrypted Pup save - Maximum password length
I'm trying to create an encrypted pup save file in Precise Puppy 5.7.1. I'm using a 33 character password(I know, overkill ). But this does not work. Is there any limit for this?

but the kernel compiles name can be up 63 chars .
Otherwise needs to look into losetup source .

If you've created a passwd over 29 characters, say, as in my case, 35.. she'll appear to load with a 29 char minimum. Anything less fails. More but incomplete, she drops into a kernel panic. If it's 33, you'll need 33. In other words, regardless the chosen length, you'll need'm all for a successful boot. What you might be doing wrong?? Make a new passwd..
