Nope:
# dmesg | grep 'hdd'
hdd: IOMEGA ZIP 100 ATAPI, ATAPI FLOPPY drive
hdd: No disk in drive
hdd: 98304kB, 32/64/96 CHS, 4096 kBps, 512 sector size, 2941 rpm
In this case the device Scot referred to would be /dev/hdd4. Assuming
it was FAT-formatted, anyway; as I recall, HFS (MacOS filesystem) Zip
disks used a different partition. Kind of an interesting concept...
As for using using an IDE Zip drive, Scot's instructions should work
fine.
