Hi all ... I just bought a Parallel port zip drive and I was wondering how
do I make it work on Linux (RH 5.2, 2.0.36 kernel).

also, if I have an rpm package and I would like to install the package on
a particular directory, what are the options for the rpm command? i
usually run

rpm -ivh packagename

which will install the package on a directory of its own. for example, i
have word perfect for linux and when i installed it, it went directly into
/opt but i wanted it on /usr ... if this cannot be done, how can i find
out in which directory was the package installed? i had to list my whole
filesystem to find the location of word perfect, since the locate database
had not been yet updated. any clues?

thanks
