Hi all,
To get better perfomance from my iomega zip I've downloaded the new ppa module
(now I'm using the driver delivered with Kernel 2.0.27), I've unzipped And
copied ppa.c ppa.h from .../ppa_1_21/ppa_parport/ to
/usr/src/linux//drivers/scsi.
I started compilation but when I typed `make modules` at the end I found the
following error message:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2
-fomit-frame-pointer -fno-streng
th-reduce -pipe -m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2
-DCPU=586 -DMODULE -DMODVERSIO
NS -include /usr/src/linux/include/linux/modversions.h -c -o ppa.o ppa.c

What's wrong?
Had I to copy the makefile enclosed with the new ppa.zip to
/usr/linux/drivers/scsi too?
I didn't this beacuse: the README tells nothing about it and because I don't
know if the new Makefile has setting only for the Zip or for every scsi device.
Thanks in advance.
