Again, I'd like to thank everyone who has helped me in the past.
I have been trying to connect my scsi zip for quite a while now. I am hoping
someone can read the following and provide a suggestion as to where I might
turn next. Sorry about the size of this message!
I have read the mini Zip-HOWTO, and /usr/src/linux/Documentation/modules.txt
I have been able to use my parallel port to connect a Zip and a SparQ.
# I've put comments in the following section followed by the pound sign.
# I tried to load the module I believe I need in order to mount my scsi zip:
[root@localhost /mnt]# insmod ppa /lib/modules/2.2.5-15/scsi/ppa.o:
init_module: Device or resource busy
[root@localhost /mnt]# modprobe ppa
/lib/modules/2.2.5-15/scsi/ppa.o: init_module: Device or resource busy
parport: Device or resource busy
# /sbin/lsmod
[root@localhost /mnt]# /sbin/lsmod
