K, Im running STorm Linux and went to the Debian howto in order to find out how to get my Zip drive to work.(Iomega external Zip)

The howto told me to add this line to my /etc/fstab file: /dev/sda1 /mnt/zip ext2 noauto,user 0 0

I did this, saved it and typed # mount /mnt/zip <enter>

I got this messege:

[mntent]:warning: no final newline at the end of /etc/fstab mount: the kernel does not recognize /dev/sda1 as a block device (maybe 'insmod driver'?)

NOt sure what to do now?

Have you enabled SCSI emulation?

The first message just means it wants a carriage return at the end of the file. You evidently don't have one. So just open fstab up in some editor, go to the end and hit enter, then save.
