Get rid of that conv=auto on that line--make it either conv=text or
conv=binary. There is a problem with conv=auto.
With umask=0 there should be no problem and uid/gid should not be necessary.
the dev=/dev/hdx4 doesn't seem to be there.... I am wondering how it sees
your ZIP at all....
Check the file permissions on /mnt/zip as well....
cat /proc/modules to assure that ide-floppy.o is loaded.

P. S. Next time you need to send the contents of a file, try attaching it to
your email. Saves a lot of i/o time on both ends.
