[techtalk] Okay so I recompiled my kernel under Re

[The Cat In The Hat]

Don't even bother to compile support for zip drives into the kernel.  They 
have to be loaded modularly.

Read http://howto.linuxberg.com/ptHOWTO/mini/ZIP-Drive and check out 
http://www.torque.net/~campbell/, you can grab the driver you need to 
compile from the second link.

Recompile the kernel with SCSI Emulation and SCSI support added in, don't 
bother to choose any specific scsi drivers unless you have a scsi card in 
your system.

After you recompile and reboot then compile the driver from 
http://www.torque.net/~campbell/ and install it in /lib/modules/<kernel - 
version>/scsi

After that you can add it to the conf.modules and it should detect after 
your main boot sequence is completed.

Your lp driver will conflict with the zip driver so you may have to rmmod 
the lp driver and insmod the zip driver.

Good luck,
CatNTHat
