Trying To Access Syquest Syjet SCSI Drive Via Parallel Port [closed]
I am trying to access the contents of a Syquest Syjet 1.5gb drive that I have connected to the parallel port. The cable allows for connection to the parallel port as well as a scsi device.
I am using Ubuntu 8.04 based on this post at ubuntuforums.org: How To Get Your External Syquest Drive Working In Ubuntu.
I want to access the drive in order to get files off of the drive then I can retire the syquest drive. I also have some Iomega 100 and 2 gig Jaz drives I would like to do the same things with as well.
So my question is: what do I need to do in order to be able to access the drive and copy the files off of it?
Other than installing the os, I have not done anything else. Even though I am a novice with respect to Linux, I am a veteran computer programmer with over 35 years of experience.

Did you thoughtfully perform ANY of the steps in the link you gave? What did you actually do, and what, exactly, were the results.
