Get your FREE POP EMAIL at PunkAss.com!!! --------------901033058 Well, i have been working at this now for a very long while, i have VERY limited resources (ie, a single 210meg hd) and my hd is now down to 2meg free, im working on upgrading, but it'll be a while now, so im desperate as to getting this zip drive working... Ive noticed that other ppl have been getting a probe message from sd0 on bootup, but i dont get that, i just get the following: ppc0 at 0x378 irq 7 on isa ppc0: Generic chipset in EPP mode (EPP 1.9) nlpt0: on ppbus 0 nlpt0: Interrupt-driven port ppi0: on ppbus 0 vpo0: on ppbus 0 vpo0: waiting for scsi devices to settle scbus0 at vpo0 bus 0 it pauses at the 'waiting for scsi devices to settle' part, and then just continues normally, i dont know exactly how to get sd0 to probe, or howto get my zip drive to attach itself as a block device. Any help would be very appreciated, and if anyone posted something in regards to my last request for help, please post it again... as i deleted the first 8 messages in my inbox on accident. - Jon Towne To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
