Re: zip drive problems...

2001-07-31 Thread Phillip Deackes
es the partition you need to access is /dev/sda1 rather than /dev/sda4. Don't know why, but I have several zip disks, some where the uabale partition is /dev/sda1 and others where it is /dev/sda4. Maybe it has something to do with whether you formatted the zipdisks using Linux or Windows? -- Phillip Deackes Using Progeny Debian Linux

vmlinuz-2.4.5. No idea why, but it was easy to make the change at boot up so no harm was done anyway. Grub works well with Reiserfs and doesn't need an ext2 boot partition (at least it doesn't on my system). -- Phillip Deackes Using Progeny Debian Linux
