problem with Zip 250

[Timothy H. Keitt]

I have an internal Zip 250.  When I try to mount it (e.g., mount -t vfat 
/dev/hdd /zip), the drive spins and then gives an error message about an 
unrecognized file system type (or bad superblock).  Has anyone else 
encountered this?  The drive itself works fine.  The problem seems to be 
with the preformatted disks.  (I don't want to reformat as I already 
have some files on the disk.)  I was able to use the 250 disks fine when 
I had RedHat installed on this machine.  I've seen the same behavior on 
several other debian systems.  Any help appreciated.

Cheers,
Tim
