Lo, folks --
I installed RH4.2, and have since upgraded to the 2.0.33 kernel. (I run
libc.so.5.) RedHat's 'Hardware Compatibility FAQ' says: removeable-
medium IDE drives are not supported, and they specifically mention
Iomega's ZIP as an example. I recall seeing posts that they may be
supported by the module 'ide-floppy' and/or the kernel config option
'large_floppy'.
Are these drives supported in a 2.0.x kernel, and if so, how should I
build and install the relevant module(s)?
TIA
