Hello- I'm having problems installing my Zip. I have it set-up through a parallel port, and together with a printer, in the customary set-up. I've already configured the /etc/fstab with
/dev/sda1 /mnt/zip ext2 noauto,user 0 0 /dev/sda4 /mnt/dos msdos noauto,user 0 0 If I try to mount /mnt/zip, I get: siddhi:~# mount /zip mount: can't find /zip in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab siddhi:~# mount /mnt/zip mount: the kernel does not recognize /dev/sda1 as a block device (maybe `insmod driver'?) Somebody told me the new Zip work with the imm module. In my dsmeg, I have imm: Version 2.03 (for Linux 2.0.0) When I give de lsmod|more command, I don't see neither the ppa, nor the imm modules loaded. However, if I try to load any of them, I get: siddhi:~# insmod /lib/modules/2.2.18pre21/scsi/imm.o /lib/modules/2.2.18pre21/scsi/imm.o: init_module: Device or resource busy Hint: this error can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters I have my printer up and running. It's on. Is that why it's "busy"? But so what? The Zip and the printer are supposed to be on friendly terms! Same thing with ppa: siddhi:~# insmod /lib/modules/2.2.18pre21/scsi/ppa.o /lib/modules/2.2.18pre21/scsi/ppa.o: init_module: Dispositivo ou recurso está ocupado Hint: this error can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters In /proc/interrupts, /proc/dma, and /proc/ioports, I have. siddhi:~/iwcl-lnx-x86-10-english# cat /proc/interrupts|more CPU0 0: 1160757 XT-PIC timer 1: 24340 XT-PIC keyboard 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 3: 284860 XT-PIC serial 8: 1 XT-PIC rtc 10: 0 XT-PIC usb-uhci 12: 300522 XT-PIC PS/2 Mouse 13: 1 XT-PIC fpu 14: 4663270 XT-PIC ide0 15: 7 XT-PIC ide1 NMI: 0 siddhi:~/iwcl-lnx-x86-10-english# cat /proc/dma 4: cascade siddhi:~/iwcl-lnx-x86-10-english# cat /proc/ioports 0000-001f : dma1 0020-003f : pic1 0040-005f : timer 0060-006f : keyboard 0070-007f : rtc 0080-008f : dma page reg 00a0-00bf : pic2 00c0-00df : dma2 00f0-00ff : fpu 0170-0177 : ide1 01f0-01f7 : ide0 02f8-02ff : serial(set) 0376-0376 : ide1 0378-037f : parport0 03c0-03df : vga+ 03f6-03f6 : ide0 03f8-03ff : serial(set) 0778-077a : parport0 e000-e007 : ide0 e008-e00f : ide1 e400-e41f : usb-uhci Anyone have an idea, or diagnosis?
