Use loop-aes, it's absolutely fabulous.

It works great with 2.4 as well as 2.6.

Instructions here.

Thanks for the suggestion. 
Now I've the following two issues:

1. The target device is fat filesystem formatted. The
target kernel image do not contain the fat filesystem
module. The target device [ i.e. /dev/md0 ]   is
mounted by the host through USB interface. Hence, in
this case the host's fat filesystem code is used.
	Will loop-aes work in this situation.

2. We were asked to use blow_fish algorithm instead.
So, how to go about it, are there any modules like
loop-aes or should I  consider the hooks
 raid5_make_request and raid5_end_read_request 
for encryption and decryption

Please suggest a solution.

Regards
Chaitanya..
