Parallel ZIP doesn't work here, using sources CVSupped today (Dec 28th).
Perhaps the cause isn't in the ppc/ppbus/vpo code; the problem
I see is that da0 isn't initialized, so I think that scbus0 doesn't
get attached to vpo0 for some reason. Some parts of the CAM code
have changed in the last month...

These are my kernel config lines related to the parallel bus:

controller      scbus0                  # Lo necesita el ZIP paralelo.
device          da0                     # Y esto también.
controller      ppbus0                  # Bus paralelo
controller      vpo0    at ppbus?       # ZIP paralelo
device          nlpt0   at ppbus?       # Impresora
controller      ppc0    at isa? port ? tty irq 7 flags 0x04

I think that this config is OK. I have no SCSI adapter in this
machine. These are the boot messages (boot -v):

ppc: parallel port found at 0x378
ppc0:
ppc0 at 0x378 irq 7 flags 0x4 on isa
ppc0: Generic chipset (EPP-only) in EPP mode (EPP 1.9)
nlpt0: <generic printer> on ppbus 0
nlpt0: Interrupt-driven port
vpo0: <Iomega VPI0 Parallel to SCSI interface> on ppbus 0
vpo0: EPP 1.9 mode

After that, there is no mention to any "da" device.
This is very odd, indeed.
