I managed to get much working including that zip drive. Turns out the
parallel port needed to have the cable attached more gently than was done
earlier. I cannot get my cd burner running yet, that's an HL-DT-ST
internal drive with a top speed of 40x. The other thing I can't get
working yet is the ensonicq 5880 sound card. I tried installing alsa from
debian and I did a successful modprobe on es1371 but alsa doesn't find
drivers it needs in the snd- type class and alsa finds no sound device
even with discover installed and running. Whatever is broken for the
sound card may be a very low level break. I have debian-reference
installed and am going to start some reading in that document it looks
pretty extensive so far. I had the cd burner running on other systems at
/dev/hdd when reading files with it.
