Looks like loop is not loaded by default:

Option 1: load the loop module before you run pyfll
Option 2: change you conf file for pyfll to use aufs instead of dmsetup (FLL_UNION_MODULE)

Maybe we should load loop in pyfll or bomb out early if it's not loaded and the config is for dmsetup. I'm not too sure about that.

Note that the dmsetup version has never been used in a release so unless you are testing it (last I remember it would still behave a bit unusally) you probably just want to stick to the tried and true aufs version anyway.

I took the first option, wondering that it was not named as a precondition on the short github.Readme nor that it was loaded by default in the aptosid-kernel.

Thanks

Well, "loop" used to be loaded by default by whatever did it, but now the thing replacing it in the systemd namespace doesn't for reasons (properly bootspeed). You can hear me using bad words every time I try to mount an iso file… but it isn't bad enough to make me figure out how to load it by default as 'modprobe loop' (enter-up-up-enter) fixes the problem and I have it only once in a while.

I think you can load it by default by editing /etc/modules-load.d/modules.conf (or a new file there), but never tried.
