Hi, I'm quite new to Linux so forgive me if this question seems ignorant.
I have an internal IDE100 zip drive which works fine under Linux but I have been unable to install any kind of zip tools and get them to work. I seems that they only want to work with SCSI devices. Now I know you can compile linux to emulate IDE devices as SCSI so the software will work but all the information on this subject either doesn't make much sense of doesn't work. Therefore could someone point me in the direction of either some software that will work with IDE drives or the information to emulate IDE as scsi. I am running SuSE 6.4 at work and 7 at home and I am having the same problems on both. regards Matthew

IIRC, SuSE had a ziptools package once? I think I saw it in 6.2 (never
used it though)
