>Description:

Very simply, my Iomega parallel port Zip drive is never detected by the 
kernel's SCSI subsystem.  As can be seen, VP0 is timing out.  Trying to do
a "camcontrol devlist -v" shows no initialized SCSI targets, on any bus.
The following is in my config file:
# Parallel port
device          ppc0    at isa? port? flags 0x0 tty irq 7
controller      ppbus0
device          lpt0    at ppbus?
#device         plip0   at ppbus?
#device         ppi0    at ppbus?
controller      vpo0    at ppbus?

controller      scbus0
device          da0

I've tried ppc0 as both tty and net, and trying to explicitly bind scbus0 to
vpo0, and trying to bind da0 to a specific target, all of which should be
unnecessary.  Nothing worked.  The BIOS setting for the parallel port is
"Bidirectional".  Also tried "Normal" and "ECP".  Didn't help.  Also tried
the GENERIC kernel, no difference.  Doesn't work.
FWIW, this Zip drive works perfectly in Win95 on the same machine.

>How-To-Repeat:

Enable vpo0, scbus0, and da0 on 3.2-RELEASE.  Connect a parallel port Zip
drive.  Boot.  Watch it not work.
