Re: mounting a ZIP drive

Charles:
I have no idea whether libsata supports zip drives or not. But here is
what I would do, modified for use on F7.

Before you run "modprobe imm", insert a disk. Then set up "tail -f
/var/log/messages" in another terminal. Then run the modprobe
command. The output from imm should show up in the output from
/var/log/messages.

Well, no joy there.

In one terminal, I removed imm (modprobe -r imm). In another terminal, I
issued the 'tail' command (and let it go). In the first, I saw the line:
kernel: imm: Version 2.0.5 (for Linux 2.4.0)

I waited many seconds - nothing more.

Mikkel:
There was a thread on
this before with someone having the same problem with ZIP drives...

Found it! Back in June / July, Gene Poole had a thread "Where did it go?" I wish that the subject was more specific - I would have noticed it. (I don't read every email on this list.)

Sounds like zip drive support was effectively dropped in F7. I'll try the tricks stated in that thread. However, I might just put the drive on my MicroSludge box (what the heck - at least I could justify having Windows!)
