Sorry for the slow response. I had to run some additional tests to make
sure I wasn't being a twit. :-)

I've tried it with both ZIPplus and parallel ZIP drives with the same
results: it doesn't find the device.

here's the boot info:

ppc0 at 0x378 irq 7 on isa
ppc0: SMC-like chipset (ECP/EPP/PS2/NIBBLE) in COMPATIBLE mode

and the config info:

controller      ppbus0
controller      vpo0    at ppbus?       # Iomega ZIP drive support

controller      ppc0    at isa? port ? tty irq 7 vector ppcintr

and my hardware info:

Dell Latitude CPi
266MHz Pentium II
128M RAM
6G IBM ATAPI disk
20x Torisan ATAPI CD-ROM

running 3.0-current 
last OS and kernel build from CVSup'd source from yesterday
