VPO(4)							   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 						    VPO(4)

NAME

     vpo -- parallel to SCSI interface driver

SYNOPSIS

     device vpo

     For one or more SCSI busses:
     device scbus

DESCRIPTION

     The vpo driver provide access to parallel port Iomega Zip and Jaz drives.

HARDWARE

     The vpo driver supports the following parallel to SCSI interfaces:

     o	 Adaptec AIC-7110 Parallel to SCSI interface (built-in to Iomega ZIP drives)
     o	 Iomega Jaz Traveller interface
     o	 Iomega MatchMaker SCSI interface (built-in to Iomega ZIP+ drives)

USAGE

     The driver should let you use a printer connected to the drive while transferring data.

     DOS and FreeBSD file systems are supported.  When mounting a DOS file system or formating a FreeBSD file system, check the slice of the disk
     with the fdisk(8) utility.

     In order to unixify a ZIP disk, put the following in /etc/disktab:

     zip|zip 100:
	     :ty=removable:se#512:nc#96:nt#64:ns#32:
	     :pa#196608:oa#0:ba#4096:fa#512:
	     :pb#196608:ob#0:bb#4096:fb#512:
	     :pc#196608:oc#0:bc#4096:fc#512:

     and use bsdlabel(8).

     If you have trouble with your driver, your parallel chipset may not run properly at the detected mode (NIBBLE, PS2 or EPP).  Tune the ppc(4)
     bootflags to force other modes.

HISTORY

     The vpo manual page first appeared in FreeBSD 3.0.

AUTHORS

     This manual page was written by Nicolas Souchu.

BUGS

     During boot, the driver first tries to detect a classic ZIP, then a ZIP+.	The ZIP+ detection is intrusive and may send erroneous characters
     to your printer if the drive is not connected to your parallel port.

ATAPICAM(4)						   BSD Kernel Interfaces Manual 					       ATAPICAM(4)

NAME

     atapicam -- CAM XPT (transport) module for ATAPI devices

SYNOPSIS

     To compile this driver into the kernel, place the following lines in your kernel configuration file:

	   device scbus
	   device ata
	   device atapicam

     Alternatively, to load the driver as a module at boot time, place the following line in loader.conf(5):

	   atapicam_load="YES"

DESCRIPTION

     The ATAPI/CAM module allows ATAPI devices (CD-ROM, CD-RW, DVD drives, floppy drives such as Iomega Zip, tape drives) to be accessed through
     the SCSI subsystem, cam(4).

     ata(4) and scbus(4) must be configured in the kernel as well.  The SCSI target drivers (cd(4), da(4), or st(4)) can then be used to access
     the devices.  The generic passthrough device, pass(4), can also be used to send SCSI commands directly to the devices through the CAM API.

     A separate CAM bus is created for each ATA bus in the system.  On each of these buses, target ID 0 is assigned to the master device, and ID 1
     is assigned to the slave (provided they are ATAPI devices).

IMPLEMENTATION NOTES

     Some SCSI commands are intercepted by the driver, and undergo special processing in order to work around limitations of ATAPI devices.  Such
     limitations can be consequences of the ATAPI specification.  For example, ATAPI devices do not implement the 6-byte versions of MODE_SELECT,
     MODE_SENSE, READ, or WRITE.  They can also be common bugs, such as hanging when queried for extended INQUIRY information.

EXAMPLES

	   device ata
	   device atapicam
	   device scbus
	   device cd
	   device pass

     Add the atapicam driver to the kernel.

	   camcontrol devlist

     Print the list of all devices available through CAM.

	   mount -t cd9660 /dev/cd0 /mnt

     Mount a CD-ROM from an ATAPI CD-ROM drive (the command above assumes that the ATAPI drive is the only CD-ROM unit).

SEE ALSO

     ata(4), cam(4), scsi(4), atacontrol(8), camcontrol(8)

HISTORY

     The ATAPI/CAM driver first appeared in FreeBSD 4.8 and FreeBSD 5.0.

AUTHORS

     The ATAPI/CAM driver was written by Thomas Quinot <thomas@FreeBSD.org>.

BUGS

     atapicam and ATAPI-specific target drivers (acd(4), ast(4), and afd(4)) can be configured in the same kernel.  Simultaneous access to the
     same device through the SCSI generic drivers and the ATAPI-specific drivers may cause problems and is strongly discouraged.
