We've got several machines with IDE Zip drives; we can't access these
drives from FreeBSD 2.2.5.

During boot, we see the message:

    wdc1: unit 1 (atapi): <IOMEGA  ZIP 100       ATAPI/24.D>, removable,
    intr, iordis

but all attempts to access /dev/wd3 or /dev/rwd3 lead to "device not
configured".

I understand others have had similar problems.  Is there a fix?  Is
anyone working on a fix?  Can I do anything to help???
