More than 8 loop-devices in Knoppix?



Is it possible to use more than 8 loop-devices when also using
bootfrom=... boot-param?

Normally (without bootfrom=...) this is easy, just use
  sudo modprobe -r loop
  sudo modprobe loop max_loop=32    # up to 255
  cd /dev
  sudo ./MAKEDEV loop8   # repeat for other loops

But when using bootfrom=... the loop-device is in use and I'm not able
to change the max_loop param.

I tried to add max_loop=32 to boot-params, but that didn't do anything.
