Document loop device support
I checked docs and haven't found answer whether ltfs works with Linux loop devices. I don't have a physical tape device.
Hello, we would like to know why would you want to use Loop Devices with LTFS?
No, LTFS does not support the loop back device, because the loop back device is a kind of emulation of the disk.
But you can use tape emulation on a directory through the file backend. See https://github.com/LinearTapeFileSystem/ltfs/wiki/The-file-backend.
