Ok. I get it! Is it possible to ask linux to "autoprobe" for a 
filesystem? I do not know the specifications to answer your questions 
exactly, but I think the IDE Zip is as Secondary slave. Heres the output 
from my dmesg:
---------------
hdd: IOMEGA ZIP 100 ATAPI, ATAPI FLOPPY drive
---------------

Is something wrong with it being that way? 

Thanks,
