You say dmesg shows nothing about you ZIP drive? Here I guess
it's a
BIOS /hardware/kernel problem. Did you double check all cables and
jumpers? (just in case...) Does the ZIP drive appear in BIOS messages on
boot?
Do you have another OS on your computer in which you can verify that the
ZIP drive still works?
I performed a full install of Fedora 7 on this machine over a working
install of Fedora Core 6. The Zip drive was working perfectly just 3-days
ago before the install.
Fearing that something may have happened to the drive, I placed it in a box
still running Fedora Core 6 and the Zip drive was configured and available
after the boot - no additional installs or modification of any kind.
