According to a search of the mail archives the above would work right out of the box (as of Nov 1996) [of course that would be with a GENERIC kernel]. I can get on boot-up a recognition of the SCSI controller and identification of the drive (correct). But when I try to mount the Zip drive (with every known letter combination) I get no where. Can someone give the the magic words to open the zip drive. It is the only SCSI device on my system (and the zip disk are IBM formated). 486DX4/100 1 - Western Digital 850 HD 1 - 3.5 Floppy (Now all alone on a floppy controller) 1 - 4x Cdrom (IDE/ATAPI) SoundBlaster 16 sound card my HD is mounted - FreeBSD /dev/wd0a DOS /dev/wd0s1 cdrom /dev/wcd0c zip drive /dev/?????? I'm using 2.1.5R Any help would be greatly appreciated Keith keithl@wakko.gil.net ------------------------------------------------------ Character is what you are in the dark - John Warfin ------------------------------------------------------
