I have the following line in /etc/fstab for my zip drive: /dev/hdd4 /mnt/zip auto user,iocharset=iso8859-1,umask=0,sync,exec,codepage=850,noauto 0 0 none /proc proc defaults 0 0
Those are all on one line of course, but yours should be similar depending on what the system sees as your device, mine shows in harddrake as /dev/hdd4. I had the same problem and just created a new icon and it used the correct nomenclature for the zip where as the installation icon was showing the wrong info in properties.
