Just very new to Linux, just installed it! How do I mount a zip drive?
|
i am a newbie to linux myself and i have a zip drive in my box and here is how i mount it:
mount /mnt/zip100.0 i dunno what it is under yours but it should be something like that do cd /mnt and see what is in that directory you should see what the zip drive is called in the mount |
the reply above would only work if a /etc/fstab entry had automatically been generated for the zip drive. in general, you can mount a zip just like an ordinary hard disk, although you need to mout partition 4 for some reason.
try /dev/hdb4, /dev/hdc4, etc e.g. mount -t msdos /dev/hdb4 /mnt/zipdrive (or whatever directory you want to mount it in) once you've found the mount command which works, you might want to add an entry to /etc/fstab, something like this: /dev/hdb1 /mnt/zipdrive msdos rw,user,noauto 0 0 then you could just do mount /mnt/zipdrive as an ordinary user |
