   I was wondering if you knew how to mount a zip disk under YDL? I'm
   not sure which device to mount, and there is no mention of it in my
   fstab file. I tried playing around with mount. Anyway, sorry to
   trouble you, any help appreciated. Tom.

I added the following to /etc/fstab:

/dev/sdb /mnt/zip hfs user,exec,dev,suid,rw,noauto,users 0 0

Note that this entry will allow you to mount Mac Zip disks.

I also did a "mkdir /mnt/zip". Now /mnt looks like

[cmb@localhost cmb]$ ls -l /mnt
total 3
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 1024 Oct 9 1998 cdrom
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 1024 Feb 6 1996 floppy
drwxrwxr-x 2 root root 1024 Dec 4 14:24 zip

I don't remember the actual mount command because I created a KDE
entry and use it. Probably

mount /zip

will work -- check out the mount man page.
