I have a similar setup, I need to use
append="hdb=ide-scsi hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-floppy"
in /etc/lilo.conf The first two entries are the CDROM/CDRW drives - hdd
is the ZIP drive, and "ide-floppy" will make sure that SCSI doesn't
"grab it". Note, of course, that you'll need to have the IDE-Floppy
support compiled into your kernel (don't know if it works as a module or
not, as I haven't tried it).

This is really anti-social - please re-configure your newsreader so that
it doesn't send plain text _and_ HTML - plain text will suffice for Usenet.
