Installed 5.3 last weekend. What is the proper proceedure for mounting and using both the EIDE(ATAPI) CD-ROM and Iomega ZIP? Any help would be appreciated.
Lets assume that cdrom is /dev/hdc and zip is /dev/sda4 (replace with the appropiate /dev) Put in the /etc/fstab these lines: /dev/hdc /cdrom iso9660 ro,noauto,user 0 0 /dev/sda4 / mnt/zip msdos noauto,user 0 0 Check that /cdrom exists (SuSE creates it), create the mount point for the zip drive /mnt/zip ( or whatever you like). The file system for the zip drive could be msdos or umsdos for fat filesystems or change it to ext2 for linux native. With this you simply type : mount /cdrom for the cd and : mount /mnt/zip for the zip drive.
