I have the same problem with the zip drive and an IBM
PCMCIA SCSI card. I could install the zip IFS drivers or
the SCSI card drivers under warp but not both at the same
time. I finally gave up and use my zip formatted FAT.
This works OK, but it is slow and FAT is bad for extended
attributes. I've seen no updates of the OS/2 zip drivers,
so I assume they think it isn't a problem. I assumed that
this was just a problem with the IBM SCSI, but if you are
having the same problem with Adaptec, then maybe Iomega
can be convinced take more notice.
