-
- You didn't mention what SCSI ID's the three internal drives are at but at
- least two of them have to be lower than the Zips id of 5 (or 6).
-
- The RDB for the hard drive with the highest ID may have the Last Drive flag
- set and perhaps the gvpscsi.device won't look any higher when you try to
- use the Zip drive.
-
- Have you tried using HDToolbox? From the shell you can enter "HDToolbox
- gvpscsi.device" and it should show you all the scsi devices. Does the Zip
- drive show up there? Note that when HDToolbox scans a Zip drive it takes
- it a while.
-
- You could also try SCSIMounter and configure it to use gvpscsi.device or
- one of the SCSI utilities like SCSIUtil.
