BTW, if you do have a parallel-port zip drive, Knoppix can read/write it just fine. To do so: 1) attach the zip drive with a disk inserted via the parallel port 2) boot Knoppix 3) open a root terminal 4) type 'modprobe imm' The zip disk should appear as /dev/sda4. Have a look in dmesg to see exactly what. If 'modprobe imm' doesn't work, then you may have an older zip drive. In that case, try 'modprobe ppa' Regards, - Robert http://www.cwelug.org/downloads Help others get OpenSource software.
