Yes, I'm running 2.1.106 here, with my parallel Zip and printer. I works great! I can access the drive and print at the same time, and the Zip drive works multiple times faster than with 2.0.x kernels. I don't know why, but copying netscape to Zip lasted many minutes with the old kernel, and takes seconds with the new. Marcus -- "Rhubarb is no Egyptian god."
