Re: [Fwd: how install a zip drive]



Karl,
Well I looked back in my 5.2 archives and found
the following in my rc.local

insmod ppa ppa_base=0x278
 

On my RH 6.1 I am using

modprobe ppa
 

Hope that helps. Oh by the way the base address is the
address that your parallel port is on.

ppa.o: unresolved symbol parport_unregister_device_Re6842bfb

ppa.o: unresolved symbol parport_enumerate_R6a5c148b

What does it mean and how can I install my parallel Zip Drive?

Thank you

I have sucessfully installed redhat 5.2 on a standard PC.  However, I
want to install a source file is about 100 MB stored a zip disk, thus
need to install an iomega zip drive.    I've read the FAQs
and did exactly what it told me to do.  When I came to the linux part
where I had to do 'make config'  however, it asked me a lot of questions 

just to reconfigure.   Is there an easy way of installing my zip
drive without running to a lot of questions?   I would appreciate your
experiences on this. 

Thanks,
Joel
