How is the ZIP drive connected? I have a system here with ZIP (on SCSI) which does have this behaviour. Sorry, my system does _not_ show the problem. Perhaps some diagnostics (prints, etc) in the IDE code can help since I doubt that anyone except for Drew has hardware to test this with. My Zip drive is IDE. It is the master device on the secondary channel. The problem is that the ZIP is an ATAPI drive and the IDE/ATAPI code does not work with non-CDROM devices. To fix this properly, the IDE code in RedBoot would have to be made capable of talking to the ZIP. For the moment, the ZIP device will simply be ignored. |
