Let me start off by saying that I am not a noob but far from knowing
exactly what I am doing. I am running Mandrake 10.1 and have an old
atapi zip 100 installed on hdc. The system is running sysfs and udev.
Whenever I boot the system it does not create a device block in /dev for
the zip drive. I have tried with and without a disk in. If I run
diskdrake then it sees the drive and I can set a mount point, save, and
then mount the drive. I have an entry in fstab. If this was a desktop
machine then it would not be such a big deal (annoying yes) but this is
on a server machine. I am just wanting to use the drive to setup an
auto-backup script of my config files, scripts, and perl automation
programs that I write. I have googled till my head hurts. From what I
can tell sysfs is suppose to see the drive and pass the info to udev to
create the device block but this is not happening. I see no info in
/sys nor in the udev config for the drive. BTW it uses the ide-floppy
driver.
