the 2.6 kernel version is antique … (about 18 years old) … it is likely to miss a lot of features …

seemingly the missing bit you hit here particularly is proper loop device support … but i guess overcoming this one (by asking your kernel maintainer to patch it in or enable it in the kernel config) will just make you hit the next road-block …

you seem to do this on a CDN, so perhaps the support of your cloud provider can help out ?
