Hey all -

I've built a live cd using loonix's how-to and the livelinux scripts(SLAX)..however when I try to mount an dd image file here is what i get..BTW loop0-loop9 are occupied by the .mo files that are mounted for the livecd to boot...

Code:
dd if=/dev/zero of=./test.dd bs=1k count=100
losetup /dev/loop10 test.dd
ioctl: LOOP_SET_FD: invaild argument


that same set of commands works on a HD install(and the Helix-based on knoppix- bootcd)....

what gives?

thanks in advance

M
