Hi Jerry; Check the script /dev/MAKEDEV you should be able to find a device there to support IOMEGA ZIP drive. then if that device is called zip0 for example you should do a; cd /dev ./MAKEDEV zip0 then make a directory like /iomega then mount the created device on the created directory. greetings. ---Jerry Barbee <Barbee@internetmci.com> wrote: > > I recently purchased an Iomega Zip drive.
