I've been trying to set up a parallel port ZIP drive. I had it set up
once back in F3.4, didn't use it for a long time, and now I need it
again. I have my kernel set up correctly, with vpo, scbus and da. vpo0
is detected on boot up, but I'm getting errors. Here is a partial output
of dmesg:

...

Is there anything I need to do under /dev? Did I miss anything in the
kernel configuration? Under Slackware I needed to load the zip stuff
before the printer stuff. Is this the case in FreeBSD?

Thanks,

David Johnson
