Zip drive

Zip drives are a type of floppy storage medium supported by Iomega, which can hold much more data than a floppy disk.

Serial Port Zip Drives
Zip drives that use the serial port can be run by the imm module. The special device used by these drives is typically /dev/sda4. One can access one like so...

# su # modprobe imm # mount -t vfat /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip (create the zip directory if necessary.) # cd /mnt/zip
