>Environment:

SCSI ZIP drive

>Description:

The zip drive causes the 'sd' driver heartburn because it is removable.
The 'od' driver knows about removable media and is less bothersome.

>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:

Add this at the end of the first '#if NOD > 0' section of scsiconf.c:	

	{
		T_DIRECT, T_OPTICAL, T_REMOV, "IOMEGA", "ZIP 100", "*",
		"od", SC_ONE_LU
	},

This probably should be done for the Jazz as well, but I don't have
one of those.

Either that or the 'sd' driver should just "get it" when given a
removable T_DIRECT. This is easier, but will require some educating
of users.
