Aloha, I need to get an old parallel Omega Zip drive to work on a freeBSD 8.* to transfer some archives to new media. I have a problem with getting the OS to read the Omega Zip drive so it can be seen in dmesg to manually set the id correctly in /etc/fstab Flash drives and floppies show up but not Parallel Omegas. My wifes MS machine has no parallel input and my several FreeBSD boxes do but wont find the hardware. I used to use Omega Zip under FreeBSD 4.11. Thought these had been transferred years ago but they were only found recently. Any suggestions appreciated. ~Al Plant - Honolulu, Hawaii - Phone: 808-284-2740 + http://hawaiidakine.com + http://freebsdinfo.org + + http://aloha50.net - Supporting - FreeBSD 7.2 - 8.0 - 9* + < email: noc@hdk5.net > "All that's really worth doing is what we do for others."- Lewis Carrol
