I have several external backup disks encrypted before Luks appeared.= After
update from 12.1 to 12.3, losetup is gone and I haven't been able to
mount the encrypted disks.

linux-p22i /root# uname -r
3.7.10-1.16-desktop

linux-p22i /root# lsmod | grep crypt
cryptoloop           = ; 12715 0
loop            = ;       27944 1 cryptoloop
dm_crypt           &= nbsp;   22845 2
dm_mod           &nb= sp;     92315 4 dm_crypt

linux-p22i /root# lsblk -f -l /dev/sdi1
NAME FSTYPE LABEL UUID MOUNTPOINT
sdi1

***/dev/sdi1 was previously under 12.1 mounted using losetup***

***Because the partition isn't a Luks partition, I can't***
linux-p22i /root# cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdi1 back5
Device /dev/sdi1 is not a valid LUKS device.

So I try a 'legacy' approach per the cryptosetup wiki:

linux-p22i /root# cryptsetup create back5 /dev/sdi1
Enter passphrase:
(which I did; just got newline)

linux-p22i /root# cryptsetup status back5
/dev/mapper/back5 is active.
type:    PLAIN
cipher: aes-cbc-essiv:sha256
keysize: 256 bits
device: /dev/sdi1
offset: 0 sectors
size:    976768002 sectors
mode:    read/write

***which seems correct to me***

linux-p22i /root# l /dev/mapper/
back5@           &nb= sp;            =             &nb= sp;         cr_ata-WDC_WD1002FAEX-0= 0Z3A0_WD-WCATRC268610-part1@
control%           &= nbsp;           &nbs= p;            &= nbsp;       main@

Now. How do I or what do I mount? I can't use /dev/mapper directly. I have no success trying to mkfs /dev/back5.

This must be a common problem but I don't find
it addressed in the opensuse forums.

Help!
