I'm not sure what 'iscsi loopback' even means. iSCSI is used to mount a virtual block device hosted on another system (initiator mode) or to share a virtual block device (target mode), while loopback is used to mount a local file as a device, such as an .iso image of an optical disc. can you explain in a little more detail what you're trying to do ? -- john r pierce, recycling bits in santa cruz
