Hi Michael.

I'm using one with Linux, RedHat in my case, but the rules should be
the same.

First, which drive is it:
1. Internel ATAPI-IDE drive.
This one gets set up the same way as any other ATAPI-IDE drive,
and it depends where you connect it up to.
2. Internal SCSI drive.
If so, what SCSI controller do you use?
3. Old external parallel port ZIP-100 using PPA protocol.
This one requires that ppa be configured in to the kernel,
either as a module or hard compiled in doesn't matter.
4. New external parallel port ZIP-100 using IMM protocol.
5. Parallel port ZIP-250 using IMM protocol.
These two both require that imm be configured in to the kernel,
either as a module or hard compiled in doesn't matter.
State which is yours and I'll advise further...
Best wishes from Riley.
