I have a iomega 250 zip drive.
These are lines from my messages file:
added mount point /media/floppy for /dev/fd0
*** added mount point /media/zip for /dev/hdd4
added mount point /media/cdrecorder for /dev/hdc
added mount point /media/cdrom for /dev/hdb
Note that it (udev) adds the hdd4, which is the way IOMEGA
apparently wanted it
With a zip disk in the drive, I use the command:
'mount /dev/hdd /media/zip' to access my zip drive
This says to me that your zip disk was not partitioned. Check it
using fdisk, I bet there is no partition, just the filesystem. That is
fine with me, but if it had 1 partition numbered 4, I think that hotplug
would automount it the same way that my usb flash memory is added,
though I have yet to make that work!
If I use a similar command to what you used:
'mount /dev/hdd4 /media/zip' it doesn't work and I get the same error
message.
Certainly if there is no partition 4 on your zip drive hdd4, mount
can't mount it.
I can make no recommendations ATM, but there should be some way to fix this! I'll keep hacking away at udev and hotplug, but so far no luck with either.
