Greetings and - Gad Zooks.. Where did you discover the above? Everything I've read about ZIP drives say they _must_ use scsi emulation.. Adding the above to /etc/fstab and then mounting /dev/hdc4 on /zip worked with Slack9.0/2.4.20 but _not_ with Slack8.0/2.4.18, which required ide-scsi.o.. All disks formatted with ext2.. I don't think I'll ever learn a thing about computers. Thanks for the solution. Now I hope it'll work with NFS..Appreciate!!
