You should have a second device connection plug on the ribbon that is 
connected to the CD drive and there should be an extra power plug also 
available.

You will need the Zip drive mounting kit, a replacement slotted front bezel 
piece for the Zip cartridge to pass through, and the IDE model Zip device in 
the capacity that you want to install. The OS will have installed the Iomega 
driver unless you did a custom install and did not select the Iomega package 
for installation.

Verify that your CD drive is identified as a "master" device. Make sure that 
you identify the Zip as a "slave" device by putting the bridge on the right 
pair of pins. Install the hardware, reboot, and insert a cartridge. You are 
now in business with a Zip device!!!

It took me about 15 minutes to do it to a B&W G3, so there shouldn't be very 
much difference for your G4.
