This is a FAQ. You need to have the parport_lowlevel module
installed as well as some other stuff, such as the SCSI
module (I think.) Then you just talk to it like any other
drive, except that, by default, you use partition 4 as the
writeable area.
Also, if you have a Parallel port model, you can take it
loose, and take it with you if the person you want to share
info with doesn't have a ZIP drive.
