The problem is that the zipdrive works perfectly in kernel 2.5.69-bk1 
without all of these messages. It floods me with these messages in 
2.4.21-rc1 though. That is why I think something got lost in a patch 
somewhere.

I added more SCSI logging support so the below is better info than the 
above. Sorry. Forgot the logging when I posted this. I knew it looked 
extra weird.

sda : READ CAPACITY failed.
sda : status = 1, message = 00, host = 0, driver = 08
Current sd00:00: sense key Not Ready
Additional sense indicates Medium not present
sda : block size assumed to be 512 bytes, disk size 1GB.
sda: Write Protect is off
  sda: I/O error: dev 08:00, sector 0
  I/O error: dev 08:00, sector 0
  unable to read partition table
Device not ready.  Make sure there is a disc in the drive.

Hope this helps more.

Thanks,
David

Yes it was. Below is the snip-it from my dmesg. That is also where the 
first error appears. Though it is different in subsequent with the last 
line as can be seen in the quoted message fragment just below this part.

It works nice under 2.5.x, but gives the sda error 5+ times just during 
boot under 2.4.x. I wonder if someone forgot to backport all or some 
patches.

Thanks,
David

Was the zip drive recognized as removable?

I included ppa and scsi in my kernel since I have a parallel port 
zipdrive. Problem I am having is that it keeps scanning the drive for 
too much too often. Anytime I mount/unmount, plug/unplug USB and 
firewire devices, or at random times, I get the following messages on my 
console and in my messages file.

Apr 23 11:41:35 aeon kernel: sda : READ CAPACITY failed.

This gets really annoying, but I like to use my zipdrive.
Let me know if more information is needed.

David
