I really hope you get a good answer to this from someone who knows for
ure - I have the same setup with an LS120 substituted for the Zip (which I
gave to a friend!)
but to get you started in A direction;
I am guessing they will be something like:
hda<---Primary Master HD
hdb<---Primary Slave CD
hdc<---Secondary Master CD [burner]
(not sure what to do about that yet, but looks like some kind of scsi
pretence is going to be called for)
(why the blazes don't people accept that burners actually come in two
flavours of electronics?)
(this seems more ostritch than penguin at this point, but I doubt if the
linux community started it!)
hdd<---Secondary Slave HD (treat it like a cd rom since it's
removeable media?)
You'll need a directory for each in mnt I think (certainly about to try that
idea myself)
Also an entry of some sort in fstab reflecting the above arrangements (will
trial and error that bit till it stops objecting)
Of course if someone actually knows what to do - then please don't just sit
there watching me make a total bags of it! ;-)
Hope it's of some value <shrug>
Regards,
Ian
