quepasa:

1. requires kernel-modules, so:
  http://user-mode-linux.sourceforge.net/UserModeLinux-HOWTO-2.html
  see xukay:/data2/joko/uml-kernel
  [...]
  #> screen -S kernel
  #> make menuconfig ARCH=um
  #> make linux ARCH=um
  #> strip linux
  #> make modules ARCH=um
  ... install into root file system as described

2. setting up loop-aes:
  http://linuxfromscratch.org/~devine/erfs-howto.html

3. installing kernel source to quepasa
   #> cd /usr/src
   ... proceed like in *
   
4. install loop-aes
    #> cd /usr/src/modules/loop-aes
    #> export LINUX_SOURCE=/usr/src/linux-2.4.27; make
