Try:
mount -t vfat /dev/hdc1 /zip

There are actual partitions on zip disks.
You can ignore the complaint about the CHS/LBA differences.

I noticed discussion about booting off ZIP drives. I'm almost positive
that you can boot off ATAPI drives as long as your BIOS supports it (since
I have a normal floppy also, it makes the ZIP drive, drive B:)
