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.
