I didn't receive any replies, but after trying a number of things, I
found that a 250 MB zip mounts on the new machine at:
/dev/hdd
but on the older machine, it mounts at:
/dev/hdd4
I thought all zip disks mounted on partition 4. It appears to work
fine. Any ideas why? The company claims it's the same model of zip
drive.
Thanks,
Dave
