- How have you tried to "access" the disk. You do know that the ZIP looks like a
- hard drive to the system. If the system sees the ZIP as a SCSI device then
- just run HDToolBox or better RDPrep (from Aminet) and save the RDB to the
- disk. RDPrep defaults work fine here. I am not sure about HDToolBox as I don't
- ues it.
-
- Hope this helps.
