Does 'ls /zip' say zip does not exist too? In that case, just create
it. 'mkdir /zip' and go.

The mount points must exist for you to mount a device. The device file
must exist, and the device must be available, for you to mount a
device to a mount point. Pretty simple once you get the hang of it ;-)
