The problem is not in hmount, but in your SCSI adapter/driver or zip disk itself. If you have a spare zip, try to to create ext2 partition with fdisk /dev/sda , (note that all data on disk will be lost!) put a filesystem with mkfs -t ext2 /dev/sda1 ^--- note 1, not 4. If it was formatted for MAC, then it would be 4. and then mount any way you like: either with mount -t ext2 /dev/sda1 /mnt or with hmount. If it doesn't work, the problem is with your adapter, it does not support removable media well. I had bad experience with SIIG adapter which I returned and got BusLogic I have no problems with. If it works, then either disk was not formatted and partitioned at all or with some defect.
