Zip Drive 100 & 250 Parallel Port Setup (Answered)

-su to root
-mkdir /mnt/zip
-nano /etc/rc.local
-put "insmod imm" in the file
-nano /etc/fstab
-put "/dev/sdb /mnt/zip auto noauto,users 0 0" in the file

reboot to check that imm loads properly at boot
right clicking the desktop will now show you the Zip Drive

Fedora handles the drive better than other distros that I have used. Using Disk Management on the System Tools menu, you can format your zips for any format. In other distros, I had to replace "auto" in fstab with "vfat" to get it to work
