Description Douglas Kilpatrick 2002-03-24 23:40:58 UTC 
Description of Problem:
An Iomega ZIP drive (in the case I am thinking of, ZIP-250) with the "A" jumper
set hides
the partition table, and so should be mounted as /dev/hdd, instead of /dev/hdd4
(for
example).

Kudzu doesn't handle that.

Kudzu could check for "Floppy" in the id string, or could check the geometry to
notice the missing space, and then change the device that it mounts.

This is configurable with updfstab.conf; that's probably how this will stay in
the future.
