I thought of that. Do not know much about udev and how to create a rule. I am going to do more research on this tonight while at work. Spoils of being a night DataCenter Tech ;).

Thanks for the link Shawn.  I have an entry in the fstab that works when
the block dev in /dev is created.  This block dev just is not being
created by udev.  I think it is a sysfs error because sysfs feeds udev.

Why? Do zip disks tend to fail when the HDD fails?

Nope. They just tend to fail. :-\

That, and failed disks have been known to foul a whole a drive.

I'd feel a lot more comfortable with either CDR, tape, or hard drive...
or a combination of the three. But if you're limited by resources,
there's not much you can do.

Me, I've never tried to get a zip drive to work with Linux, so I'm no
use to Dan.

In the future, I'll try to remember that Dan only wants direct answers.
