NAME
       systemd-loop@.service - Attach a loopback block device

SYNOPSIS
       systemd-loop@path.service

DESCRIPTION
       systemd-loop@.service is a template service that may be used to automatically attach a loopback block
       device at boot (or later). Its instance string may reference an (escaped) file system path pointing
       to a disk image to attach as loopback block device. Use systemd-escape(1)'s --path to properly escape
       a file system path.

       This unit invokes systemd-dissect --attach --quiet --loop-ref-auto on the specified files, see
       systemd-dissect(1) for details.
