I think (as root)
modprobe imm
should do it.

This is the procedure for a parallel drive: Open up the /etc/modules file in your favourite text editor - I used Kate in Kubuntu - while logged in as either su or root. I've set up my system to log into root which is not default in Ubuntu/Kubuntu. for an Iomega 250 parallel drive add the line: imm for an older Iomega 100 parallel drive you will need to add the line: ppa save and close the file. You may need to enter your BIOS configuration and set the parallel port properties to SPP At this stage you need to create a mount point in order for Ubuntu/Kubuntu to know where to mount your Zip drive In a terminal (again as su or root) enter mkdir /mnt/zip100.0 (for a Zip 100 drive) or mkdir /mnt/zip250.0 (for a Zip 250 drive). Now, in your favourite text editor again, enter the following line for a Zip 100: /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip100.0 vfat noauto,user 0 0 or for a Zip 250: /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip250.0 vfat noauto,user 0 0 Obviously you will notice that this was written with Ubuntu/Kubuntu in mind :-) I wrote it after getting frustrated with the lack of documentation for this procedure on that site. I don't know whether it will be of any use with an internal drive though. -- ============================================== I am only human, please forgive me if I make a mistake it is not deliberate. ============================================== Xmas may be over but, PLEASE DON'T drink and drive you'll make it to the next one that way.
