1 Hi,
2
3 I've upgraded the kernel on an old machine to 2.6.32.
4 Now, I cannot get the ZIP drive (ATAPI) working.
5
6 There is a /dev/hdd device and dmesg is telling me about
7 an IOMEGA ZIP drive, but
8 trying to
9
10 fdisk /dev/hdd
11 or even mount it,
12 seems to make the kernel hang (at least these commands
13 never finish)
14
15 Has anybody any hint on what to try?
16
17 Many thanks,
18 Helmut.
