Help requested: internal iomega atapi zip drive



I recently compiled (and recompiled and recompiled, etc) a new kernel,
2.4.18, hoping to be able to use my internal iomega atapi zip drive,
which I was able to use before I crashed my harddrive and had to
reinstall from scratch about a year ago.

I tried with jazip and scsi emulation enabled and ide/atapi disabled,
per the jazip faq: "...you need to turn on kernel support for "SCSI
emulation", "SCSI Support", and "SCSI Generic Support". You also need to
turn off "IDE/ATAPI Floppy Support"". 

If I understand correctly, my zip drive should then show up as sda in
the boot messages, but I don't see it (and jazipconfig reports: no
device found)

I also tried the reverse, scsi support disabled ide/atapi
enabled. Should I then see a "hdc"?

In any event, I'm not sure what the ide0 or ide1 drives are? anything to
do with this.

Sorry for the question if there is an obvious answer, but I don't see
it. Any help very much appreciated by this SIMPLE END USER. Thanks (boot
messages follow),

Tomasz
