Help File Library: Mounting Your Zip Drive

Skamm sent in these simple instructions for getting your zip drive mounted. Warning: this example is for Red Hat, but may easily work with other distributions as well.

mkdir /mnt/zip

<skamm>

:insmod parport

<skamm>

:insmod ppa

<skamm>

:mount -t msdos /dev/sdX4 /mnt/zip

<skamm>

Don't use "insmod parport" if your version is pre-5.2

Here's Sensei's contribution :)

To use and check your zip:

cd /mnt/zip

ls -a

VOILA!
