I have Licq installed on my v9 box and all runs just fine.
I did a fresh install of 9 though. What error do you
receive when starting licq from command line?
As far as the Zip internal, I have the same problem.
If you find the answer to that let me know.
I am starting to think it is kernel related, as my SCSI
hd wont mount upon boot, but will after system is booted.
I get the same error as you, on both the zip, and SCSI hd.
I have stumbled a bit further though. Someone on here made
mention to not put any entry into /etc/lilo.conf
Taking that out, my zip will at least spin up, but

Hi Ken,
Re: LICQ
I'm assuming you are not the Ken Thompson who developed linux and C with
Dennis Richie? (I think that was his name)
I gave up on Licq and now use micq.org, its very uptodate, workign with
the v8 OSCAR protocol, runs from any shell so you can use it from any pc
and even works with UTF-8!
