[newbie] zip drive problem

[Idris S Hamid]

I am having trouble getting the zip drive recognized in 
Mandrake 7.0. Here is what I get:

# modprobe ppa
/lib/modules/2.2.14-15mdksecure/scsi/ppa.o: init_module: Device or
resource busyparport: Device or resource busy

modprobe imm gives the same message (though I have a 100M drive so
modpobe ppa should be correct). 

I added the following line to /etc/fstab:
/dev/hdd       /mnt/zipdisk        vfat    user,noauto,rw       0 0

Please advise, thanks a lot!

Best wishes
Idris
