I have mine running under 2.1-R. Here is my disktab entry:

iomega|ZIP Drive: \
        :ty=winchester:dt=SCSI:se#512:nt#64:ns#32:nc#96:rm#3600:\
        :pc#196608:oc#0: \
        :pe#196608:oh#0:bh#4096:fh#512:th=4.2BSD:

You may also get the newer disklabel and use the auto feature.
Did you successfully fdisk it? I don't recall what parameters I gave
there.
