I did not even load sd.o, which reads the size of the medium. Output after successfull modprobe: kernel: imm: Version 2.04 (for Linux 2.4.0) kernel: imm_connect 1 kernel: imm: Found device at ID 6, Attempting to use EPP 32 bit kernel: imm: Found device at ID 6, Attempting to use PS/2 kernel: imm: Communication established at 0x378 with ID 6 using PS/2 kernel: device_check 0 kernel: scsi1 : Iomega VPI2 (imm) interface kernel: scsi : 2 hosts. kernel: Vendor: IOMEGA Model: ZIP 250 Rev: J.45 kernel: Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02 Even without a disk this works (if parport_pc is preloaded). Anyway the disk in the drive was a 250MB vfat formatted one. But OTOH, the oops trace points to ext2. For completeness: With the disk "modprobe sd" gives kernel: Detected scsi removable disk sda at scsi1, channel 0, id 6, lun 0 kernel: SCSI device sda: hdwr sector= 512 bytes. Sectors= 489532 [239 MB] [0.2 GB] kernel: sda: Write Protect is off kernel: sda: sda4 Refering to my last message - so far i didn't check, if an ext2 formated disk works with test6. But "modprobe imm" worked. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
