mounting zip disk

[Scot Jenkins <swjenkins@ibm.net>]

Before I try to edit my /etc/fstab file to mount the floppy, cdrom, and
zip drive at boot, somehow I gotta get the parallel port zip drive to
mount.
Command line mount/umount cdrom and floppy is no problem.
  Checked dmesg. I don't think the kernel has a driver for my zip.
That's
one theory. 

   >mount -t vfat /dev/sda4 /zip

    gave me an error message relating to isamod driver. The folder /zip
is valid.

don't you have to load the parallel port module 1st?  ppa.o I think. 
Don't have a zip drive but I think this is your problem.

try lsmod to see if it's loaded
