However, if it's creating or modifying files outside of SO that you're having problems with, try looking at my fstab entry. Note, however that it's an external Zip drive. My other machine doesn't have SO on it yet, so I'm not able to test if the internal Zip will have the same problems. You may have to modify it to /dev/hda4 or something liek that if it's internal. * My original post is below for reference. In rereading it, it's not exactly clear.
