I've got IDE Zip drives working on the LTSP clients.  The tricky part
was coping with devfs.

Standard vfat zip disks have a MSDOS partition table with the main
data in partition #4.  Initially, I set the device to /dev/hdc4.
However, this doesn't work because devfs doesn't create hdc4 until a
zip disk is inserted into the drive.  The solution is to copy the
relevant /dev/hd?4 devices into /dev-zip in the LTSP tree and use
these pre-created devices instead of the devfs devices.
