Forgive me if this seems a little shallow, but it sounds as if the Zip disk isn't formatted (or not formatted vfat). Even if it worked before, in the hot humid weather (that much of the northern hemisphere is now experiencing) Zip disks can go bad. If there's no valuable data on the disk, why not g

I think the problem is systemic to "removable" fixed disk drives in general. I've had the problem with Syquest 250MB and the sparq 1GB drives. As far as I can guess it's a problem with lower physical tolerances combined with greater environmental contact, especially dust. Actually, I've found LS12

There is a mini HOWTO on this. Which zip disk will you be using, Parallel, IDE or SCSI? My experience has been that as long as you don't use the Tecra install*, this is trivial. The following commands: insmod ppa mkdir /mnt/zip(if this doesn't exist already) mount -t vfat /dev/s
