kernel need to be reconfigured for Zip drive ?



Hello, I just bought a Zip 100 IDE drive.  I am running kernel 2.4.19
with scsi emulation support for cdrom.  Just wondering if I need to turn
on any options to have it support the Zip drive.  

dmesg says the zip is under hdd  ,  I tried mount -t vfat  -l /dev/hdd4
and mount -t vfat  -l /dev/hdd  have these messages 

w"rong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hdd,
       or too many mounted file systems
 (could this be the IDE device where you in fact use
       ide-scsi so that sr0 or sda or so is needed?)"

in dmseg, my cdrw is under hdc but it is actually scd0.  So could the
zip drive has some other names under /dev ?
