Had to reboot my machine last night.  On bootup, (when fstab was "mounting"), I
got an error that basically says I will need to run

modprobe pp _before_  the zip drive can be mounted.  Is there any way to either
tell modprope ppa to execute before fstab OR set
something where modprobe ppa will not need to be run again?


Thanks Again,
Bryan
