I just installed an IDE Iomega Zip drive on a system that already has, 3 =
IDE drives, 3 SCSI drives, 1 Dat Drive, 1 QIC-80 drive, 1 SCSI CD-ROM =
Reader, 1 SCSI CD-ROM writer...

All I did was hook it up and turn on the system.

Looking at the dmesg" output I saw that the zip drive was recognized as =
/dev/hdd so I created an /etc/fstab entry for it using the mount point =
of /mnt/zip...

That's it!

If you have a SCSI or Parallel port Zip drive, then check out the HOWTOS =
on your system.
