Subject:   FBSD 3.2 - Problems with zip drive
Message-ID:  <19991111211642.A264@wyshbone.panix.com>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help
I'm a bit new to unix and freebsd, so if I get anyhting wrong feel
free to correct me. I'm running 3.2; I've got 2 parallel ports, one
of which has an external zip drive connected to it. I've been thru
The Complete FreeBSD, 3rd edition, the faq, the handbook and any
other documentation I could find. I've also searched deja.com but
I just can't seem to get this damn zip to work.

In my kernal I have:

controller scbus0
device     da0

controller ppbus0
controller vp0
device     lpt0 at ppbus?
device     lpt1 at ppbus?

In /etc/fstab I have:

/dev/da0s4 /zip msdos rw,noauto 1 1

The mount point /zip does exist and there is a disk in the drive.

I realize this message may be a bit long, but I'm trying to make
sure I don't leave anything out. If anyone could help me get this
zip drive to work, or at least point me in the right direction,
I would be grateful. dmesg output follows. 

Thanks
