Here's on of those things that should be simple but is
giving me a surprising number of headachs...

I'm trying to mount a parallel zip drive on FreeBSD
4.8. I did re-configure my kernel to include the vpo
driver and I get the following message on "dmesg":

vpo0: <Iomega VPI0 Parallel to SCSI interface> on
ppbus0
vpo0: EPP mode
vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5)
vpo0: VP0 error/timeout (5)

The errors are a little worrying, but it does seem to
be seeing the drive. Then, when trying to mount it, I
get this error:

mount_msdos: /dev/da0s4: Device not configured

I'm sure there's something very small and simple that
I'm doing wrong, and I'd be grateful if someone would
kindly point it out.

Thanks a lot,
Alex
