check /var/log/messages and see if any drives are mounted.
the module simply loads the driver and maps the parallel port to a scsi
device.
then you need to manually mount the drive ... normally /dev/sda1

USB disks are much larger than that these days, cheap, and don't die as
quickly (no moving parts, no click of death).


hmm... guess one man's "usb disk" is another man's flash drive. i never
did trust "zip" disks and floppy disks and cds/dvds for storage other than
as temporary one. i forget where i saw it that solid state drives, i.e.
"flash drives" aren't as reliable as good old hard drives, but is getting
there especially now laptops are going to be equipped with "flash drives"
instead of regular hard drives.
