Hi all, traffic on this list is getting pretty small, have I missed something?

1. I would like to network my Powerbook running LM8 to my desktop 
running MacOS 9.2.1. From my reading it looks like I need netatalk, 
but I can't work out if it has been installed by Mandrake, and if it 
has, how to use it. I have read the HOWTO's on the disk, but so far 
have not been (mainly able to work out if it is installed and how to 
run it. Any help here?

2. I would like to be able to use my (SCSI) zip disk on my powerbook. 
dmemsg tells me it is sensed at sda so I made an entry in fstab
/dev/zip /mnt/zip hfs nosuid - can't rememebr the next bit ... 0 0

then I made a directory /mnt/zip and made a link from /dev/sda to /dev/zip

Then I tried mount /dev/zip - can't mount because wrong start block, 
or too many filesystems mounted.

tried canging it from hfs to vfat - no difference

Any idea where to go next (zip won't work on my desktop either)

Finally, the rpm blues are getting me down, nearly every package I am 
interested in fails due to broken dependencies. Is there an easier 
way than this?

Thanks
