  Remove the max_loop setting from the boot line.

  Instead run:

  echo 'options loop max_loop=255' > /etc/modprobe.d/loop.local

  Now if you have no domains running you should be able to do:

    rmmod loop
    modprobe loop
    dmesg | grep loop

  The last line should show you that you have >8 loaded.
