What type of filesystem is on /dev/hda1 and what program are you trying

to back it up with?

Does you /etc/fstab has the newer format with "LABEL=/" where you
would expect "/dev/hda1" in the older format?
And is the amanda client an older version?
Then just try the directory name instead of the diskname
in your disklist file.  Or upgrade the amanda client.
