Zip drive semi success.

[Isn't anyone else finding stuff out?]

I connected up my parallel Zip drive last night. From memory:

!Boot.Modules.PPADriverJ
!Boot.Modules.IZipFS

and then insert a Zip disc and it automounts and *. complains about not
recognizing the filesystem.

Is filecorefs the same as ADFS or different? I was wondering if I put an
ADFS filesystem on the Zip disc whether that would work or not. NetBSD
appears to have a filecorefs driver and mentions being able to mount
ADFS as part of that. Linux just has ADFS. I'm not sure how to create
such a filesystem though.

Oh, and something like:

Resources.Test.!TestMenu

gives a test menu (well duh) including a basic terminal emulator where
you can type AT commands to the modem.
