Hello,

On RH9, when a CD is inserted, a nice icon pops up on my screen which I
can click. How do I do the same for ZIP disks (which have this ability
under XP, I might add).

Thanks,


Schewdent.

Is this an internal or external zip drive?

Hmm...., I'm rather surprised as RedHat 8.0/9.0 will recognize an internal
zip drive during the install or if it's added to the system later. What
does your /etc/fstab file look like?

Below are my RedHat 8.0/9.0
/etc/fstab files with & without the internal zip drives.
