I use the 'ppa' driver to occasionally connect to my IOmega external ZIP 
drive.  When the driver is loaded, this drive shows up on /dev/sda1, 
which is what I have in fstab to mount at /mnt/zip.

However, I don't load ppa all the time.  So, how can I instruct
kerneld/modprobe that I want the 'ppa' module (and dependant modules) loaded
when I do a "mount /mnt/zip", or when /dev/sda1 is accessed?

Thanks,

Mike
