In attempting to configure my internal ATAPI-IDE Zip drive I found the following advice (I have lost the source): "Here's how to use an IDE ATAPI zip drive on Linux. First, the kernel: Do _not_ use the "IDE FLOPPY" option (officially the name is CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEFLOPPY ). This will work perfectly for reading and writing, but it will not work for ejecting. What you need to do is say yes to the option CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDESCSI. When this is set, you will treat the IDE ATAPI drive just like a SCSI drive, except without the SCSI card and all that other garbage......" However, I don't know how to access the options referred to. Any suggestions much appreciated. Michael Coady
