Hi John
Many thanks for the reply! I was just getting ready to yank out that zip drive
and put in in a Windows machine when I got your message.
My zip drive is recognized as hdb when Linux is booting and the cd rom is hdc.
I have a 6.5 gb hard drive partitioned to 3 partitions (2047 mb) for data and 1
partition for a swap (125 mb).
Would my zip drive be just hdb or hdb1 when I add the line you mentioned? Also,
does the line need to be in any particular order? I still get a little nervous
editing these files although I have been doing it over a year now.
Thanks again!
Jim
