I was reading the Zip FAQs distributed with Suse 7.1, I have followed all the steps even recompiling my kernel experimenting with several options related with the parallel port, the thing is that when I do: mount /dev/sda4 /zip My console hangs . What can I do to have access to the zip drive?

That might work - it seems to depend on your hardware. If it doesn't work, try this: modprobe parport_pc modprobe ppa mount /dev/sda4 /zip Also, I'm assuming you have only the Zip drive connected to the parallel port and are not using a pass-through device hooked to a printer. - Robert Storey
