+
+	   Whether it's a removable drive like a ZIP or an EZ drive (or
+	   even a floppy, if you want to use it that way), or a new hard
+	   disk, once it's installed and recognised by the system, and
+	   you have your cartridge/floppy/whatever slotted in, things are
+	   pretty much the same for all devices.
+
+	   <label id="disklabel">
+	   If it's a ZIP drive or a floppy , you've already got a DOS
+	   filesystem on it, you can use a command like this:
+
+	   <verb>
+		mount -t msdos /dev/fd0c /floppy
+	   </verb>
+
+	   if it's a floppy, or this:
+
+	   <verb>
+		mount -t msdos /dev/sd2s4 /zip
+	   </verb>
+
+	   for a ZIP disk with the factory configuration.
+
+           For other disks, see how they're laid out
+	   using <tt/fdisk/ or <tt>/stand/sysinstall</tt>.
+
+           The rest of the
+	   examples will be for a ZIP drive on sd2, the third SCSI disk.
+
+	   Unless it's a floppy, or a removable you plan on sharing with
+	   other people, it's probably a better idea to stick a BSD file
+	   system on it. You'll get long filename support, at least a 2X
+	   improvement in performance, and a lot more stability. First, you
+	   need to redo the DOS-level partitions/filesystems. You can either
+	   use <tt/fdisk/ or <tt>/stand/sysinstall</tt>, or for a small
+	   drive that you don't want to bother with multiple operating system
+	   support on, just blow away the whole FAT partition table (slices)
+	   and just use the BSD partitioning:
+
+	   <verb>
+		dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/rsd2 count=2
+		disklabel -Brw sd2 auto
+           </verb>
+
+	   You can use disklabel (more info in <ref id="2_1-disklabel-fix"
+	   name="this note">) or <tt>/stand/sysinstall</tt> to create multiple
+	   BSD partitions (you'll certainly want to do this if you're adding
+	   swap space on a fixed disk, but it's probably irrelevant on a
+	   removable).
+
+	   <verb>
+		disklabel -e sd2
+	   </verb>
+
+	   Finally, create a new file system, this one's on our ZIP drive
+	   using the whole disk:
+
+	   <verb>
+		newfs /dev/rsd2c
+	   </verb>
+
+	   and mount it:
+
+	   <verb>
+		mount /dev/sd2c /zip
+	   </verb>
+
+	   and it's probably a good idea to add a line like this to 
+	   <tt>/etc/fstab</tt> so you can just type "mount /zip" in the
+	   future:
+
+	   <verb>
+/dev/sd2c		/zip		ffs	rw,noauto	0	0
+	   </verb>
