Thanx for any > suggestions!! see the SCSI HOWTO and the ZIP mini-HOWTO (and possibly the Kernel HOWTO if you have problems rolling your own kernel) in the /usr/doc/HOWTO directory and the /usr/doc/HOWTO/mini/ directory on your machine. if you don't have these, install all the documentation in the debian doc tree or visit sunsite or any of its mirrors and look for the /pub/Linux/docs/ directory. i believe the zip drive is treated like a normal file system under linux so formatting is a snap. after going through all of that if you have any question write back to the list. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
