I have Googled around on this but haven't found anyone with the same problem or even better a solution. I leave the ZIP disk in the drive before booting the kernel like all the help files say and it picks it up: da0 at vpo0 bus 0 target 6 lun 0 da0: Removable Direct Access SCSI-2 device da0: 96MB (196608 512 byte sectors: 64H 32S/T 96C) But when I try to mount it: mount -t msdos /dev/da0 /mnt it gives me : msdos: /dev/da0: Invalid argument Why does this keep happening?? What am I doing wrong? -- It takes two to lie Marge, one to lie and one to listen.
