you can see in my first post that this zip has been working fine for a long time on suse 9.1
Sorry, I misread your original post and thought you had moved up to 9.2. This problem appears in 9.2. In SuSE 9.1, mounting /dev/hdd4 (in your case) should work.

In 9.2, /dev/hdd4 (or whaterver hdx4 your zip is on), does not exist and mounting /dev/hdd (no parttition number) works. You might try it just to see.

# mount -t vfat /dev/hdd /media/zip

I that doesn't work, insert a zip disk and try (as root):
fdisk -l (small 'L' not a # 1)
See if that lists anything helpful

Good luck
