Where's /dev/sda4?

	Hi David.

		I have a suggestion for you; don't follow those
instructions "to the letter", they're really just a guideline. What you
want to do is see if there are any new SCI disks added to your ssytem
after installing (or plugging in?) the Zip drive, and *that* will be the
device you want to use (instead of "sda4"). use the following commands
to find the device: 'dmesg | grep -e sd' (drop the quotes, of course).
Once you see a reference to a zip drive in that output, than use the
following (as root, use "su -l"): fdisk -l /dev/<zip-disk-device>. I
hope you get it to work!
