Check to see if there's a module for that device. If there is, insmod
it. If not, you'll have to compile it, which means a kernel compile,
this time with the appropriate drivers enabled (either in the kernel
or as modules). See the instructions for compiling the kernel that
come with the kernel source.
I don't know off the top of my head which drivers are required for
parallel ZIP drives. I'm sure someone else here can provide that
information if you need it.
