$ modinfo loop
filename:    /lib/modules/2.4.22-1.2188.nptl/kernel/drivers/block/loop.o
description: <none>
author:      <none>
license:     "GPL"
parm:        max_loop int, description "Maximum number of loop devices
(1-256)"

So load the loop kernel module with parameter max_loop=12 for example to
get maximum 12 loops.
