I have installed an Iomega ZIP 100 parallel drive and it works under DOS. I
have read the HOWTO but there seem to be some differences relative to the
latest kernel (2.2.5), which I'm using.
I've compiled in SCSI support, SCSI Disk support, and IOMEGA parallel
support (which I think is unnecessary). None of these are modules and I
don't want to use modules if I can avoid it.
On boot, I get the following messages:

It looks as if the scsi interface has been detected but I don't know if
this is enough or what to do next. Can anyone help please?
