parallel port zip250 with livecd

[c_cinq]

I am trying to use a zip250 attached via scsi cables. I can't seem to be able to load the imm module.

when i give the command as root
modprobe imm
I get the message:

/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/scsi/imm.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/scsi/imm.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/scsi/imm.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.26/kernel/drivers/scsi/imm.o: insmod imm failed


I then gave the comand
dmesg to see if anything occured anyway. these are the last few line of dmesg:

parport0: PC-style at 0x378 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,EPP]
lp0: using parport0 (polling).
lp0: console ready
ppa: Version 2.07 (for Linux 2.4.x)
WARNING - no ppa compatible devices found.
As of 31/Aug/1998 Iomega started shipping parallel
port ZIP drives with a different interface which is
supported by the imm (ZIP Plus) driver. If the
cable is marked with "AutoDetect", this is what has
happened.
imm: Version 2.05 (for Linux 2.4.0)
__alloc_pages: 0-order allocation failed (gfp=0x1d2/0)
VM: killing process kdeinit
imm: Version 2.05 (for Linux 2.4.0)

Now I am wondering if the module can be loaded as a boot parameter. I googled it and found : http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/SCSI-2.4-HOWTO/mlbparams.html

I am about to use this line as an option: scsihosts=advansys:imm::ide-scsi

I hope it does kill this computer! :?:

If anyone can help please or give me some counsel, please...
