Re: usb zip dirve



You cannot mount /dev/sda, you have to mount /dev/sda4
eg: to manually mount on /mnt:

mount -t vfat /dev/sda4 /mnt

I'm assuming that you've checked in /var/log/dmesg to see that /dev/sda is 
the correct device?

Also, you may want to try rebooting with a ZIP disk in the drive.
