Installing ZIP parallel port drive on TP701cs - How?



What is the "trick" to installing a ZIP parallel port drive to a ThinkPad
701cs under Windows95? I can put the files from the installation diskette
into a directory on the hard drive and install from that with the drive
attached via the adapter to the ThinkPad. However, subsequently, with the
ZIP drive attached to the parallel port on the Multiport port replicator
no drive letter is found for the Zip drive when booting.

I seem to remember some discussion of this problem earlier on this group -
I apologize if it is "old hat".
