     that the Zip drive is the first SCSI bus in the system.

	   disklabel -w -r da0 zip100
	   newfs da0c
	   mount -t ufs /dev/da0c /mnt

     Write a disklabel to the Zip drive (see vpo for the disktab entry), creates
     the filesystem and mounts the new filesystem on /mnt.

	   newfs_msdos /dev/da0

     Create a new FAT type filesystem.
