Remember sda1 and sda4 aren't DIFFERENT devices (in theory anyway), but different partitions on the same device (first and fourth partitions on the first SCSI disk). Seems like supermount is trying to mount the "first partition" on the zip disk, which doesn't exist (for some reason zip disks are always sda4). If maybe you could assign the CF reader to a different device file (sdb1, for example) it might help, but I'm not quite sure how you'd go about doing that (from the hardware section of the Control Center?).
