Here are two mountlists (well, not technically mountlists, since they go into
DEVS:DOSDrivers, but..) that I use for an MSDOS format Zip, and a Mac HFS Zip:
Dos -
/* Mountfile Entry Created: 13-Apr-95 19:44:27
* for full CrossDOS Disk.

* Disk Size: 95.9 Meg
* Vendor and drive name: 005 IOMEGA ZIP 100
*/
/* Disk size parameters.*/
Surfaces = 1
BlocksPerTrack = 68
Lowcyl = 0
Highcyl = 2890
BufMemType = 1
Blocksize = 512
/* Device driver parameters.*/
Device = scsi.device
Unit = 5
Flags = 0x00000000
/* File system parameters.*/
Mask = 0xFFFFFFFE
Maxtransfer = 0xFFFFFFFF
Reserved = 0
Filesystem = L:CrossDOSFileSystem
Stacksize = 2000
Priority = 5
Bootpri = -20
Globvec = -1
Buffers = 5
Dostype = 0x4d534800
Mount = 1
