In your fstab, if you have /dev/sda4 set to vfat (aka Windows patition), then it won't mount an ext2 disk, since it's trying to mount it as a Windows disk.
Try to mount -t ext2 /dev/sda4 /mnt/zip & see if it will mount then. If you can mount the disk when specifying the file system, then it's just an fstab issue. -Rob > Greetings. > > Strange behavior here: zip disks I've been using regularly suddenly > refuse to mount.
