When loading the kernel I get ppa: Version2.03 (for Linux 2.2.0) Warning - no ppa compatible devices found. My zipdrive is connected to my parallel port with the printer connected to the zipdrive. I have had the zip for around 3 years so I do not believe it is one of the newer types (plus my cable does not say autodetect). Any ideas on what I might can try to get the kernel to read my parallel port zip drive? Lance
