In fact, after detecting the ppa0 device, it locks up (but only if the drive is in fact on--if it's powered off or disconnected, I get a "probe failed" message and the boot continues). I need to get this working quickly, or send it back. Has anybody else got a zip drive working? If so, did you use this driver, or get a SCSI adaoptor? If the former, can you give me any pointers? If the latter, do you have a laptap (PCMCIA) SCSI adaptor that works? Thanks. -- Brian T. Schellenberger, the Man from Babble-On.
