Hi Scott,
you need to make sure that the device is actually configured as LUN 0 and=
that=20
the SCSI ID is unique.
Another area you have to look into is that the device only has terminatin=
g=20
resistors installed (or the terminator jumper set) if it indeed the last=20
device in the SCSI cable. If you plugged it in after the previous last=20
device, make sure to disable termination on the previous device. SCSI is=20
pretty fuzzy about it's terminators and you might see all kinds of funny=20
things when it's not done properly.
IOSCSIParallel is not really SCSI. I think this is how IOmega mimics SCSI=
to=20
run a parallel port ZIP drive. I doubt that your "real" SCSI CD drive wil=
l=20
work on that.
What other SCSI devices do you have connected to that port? Check the ZIP=
=20
drive, if that's what you have. If it says something about parallel port,=
=20
then the CD drive will not work. If the ZIP drive has a little switch whi=
ch=20
lets you select device 5 or 6 (only those two) then you have a real SCSI =
ZIP=20
drive, and then the CD drive should work on the same port.
Let me know if this didn't address the problem (yet), in which case I wil=
l try=20
and think a little harder ;).
