"could Not Find Any Free Loop Device"

#1 (**permalink**) 18-May-2006, 00:21

I was doing stuff today and I was mounting some images when I got this error message. I googled it up and found out it's because my max loop is at default (8). It can be changed, but the info I got didn't apply to me so I need help.
Thanks

I just solved it. Went to google.com/linux (awesome didn't even know it existed) and searched it and found what I needed. In case if it helps anyone,
In "/ect/modules.conf" you add "options loop max_loop=64".

Edit: oops, left something out of the quotes, but now its fixed

Yes, that's it, but watch out or performance will be badly affected.
