Use modprobe ppa instead of insmod ppa, and it will take care o loading
the missing modules. You probably don't have the low-level parallel
port modules loaded. One thing to keep in mind with ZIP disks - for
some strange reasion they are normaly partitioned and formatted with the
data on the 4th logical partition, instead of the first. I use SCSI and
IDE ZIP drives, so I have only limmited knolage of the parallel port
version.
