            I have an external prallel port generic IDE drive box that
    works with on26. Using a normal IDE disk and pd things are just fine.

            I'd like to use it with an ATAPI Zip drive. Using pf, fdisk
    can see it just fine, and I can, for example, eject the disk with
    eject.

            But, since pf was apparently written with non-partitioned
    disks (LS-120, CDs) in mind. Zip disks, however, are partitioned.

            Is there something short of reworking the pf driver to support
    partitioning that will get me around this?
