Title: RE: Zip drives under Redhat 6.0/6.1

Absolutely nothing! All the support you need is included with the 2.2 kernel. Redhat 6.0 comes with the ppa module, use 'insmod ppa' to load the module and then mount the zip disk as you would a floppy. On my system the command is as following 'mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip' however replace 'sda4' with whatever you zip disk is assigned to.

        Hope this helps however i'm still a newbie. If any veterans want to go into more depth, I would also be grateful.

    I'm thinking about getting a external 100 meg zip drive that plugs into
    the PC parallel port. What do you need to do to get it up and running
    under
    Redhat 6.0/6.1?

    Are there any rpm's that need to be installed ect?
