I am having a problem with my Imation superdisk ls120
drive under Linux kernel 2.2.12.
I can only geg linux to recognize it if I first
load the dos driver.
Below is the output from my attempts.
First is trying to load the drivers with out
loading the dos driver,
then output from testport.exe,
and then the output from the dos driver and lastly
the output from the linux drivers loading successfully.
Can anyone help me with this problem, or must I always first
load the dos driver for this drive?
Do I need to do something with the pppscsi drivers, since the output
looks like it is a parallel scsi device?

thanks.

phil
