see the SCSI HOWTO and the ZIP mini-HOWTO (and possibly the Kernel HOWTO
if you have problems rolling your own kernel) in the /usr/doc/HOWTO
directory and the /usr/doc/HOWTO/mini/ directory on your machine.

if you don't have these, install all the documentation in the debian doc
tree or visit sunsite or any of its mirrors and look for the
/pub/Linux/docs/ directory.

i believe the zip drive is treated like a normal file system under linux
so formatting is a snap.

after going through all of that if you have any question write back to the
list.
