Does the file "/dev/sda4" exist?
If not, I understand that udev should be creating on the fly, but I'm not familiar with udev yet, I'm using traditional dev files (9.3).
I used File Manager - Superuser Mode and checked the directories and sub-directories of /dev... /dev/sda4 doesn't seem to be there. I'm going to try reloading my whole system and see what happens. Maybe I messed something up. I just tried doing a search in YAST on the SuSE CD to see if there might be some package that could be loaded to provide /sda4 . It took nearly 45 minutes and it still wasn't finished. when I cancelled. All my critical data is backed up. It also seems that my pc is communicating wioth something online, even when I'm not doing anything. I hadrootkit obn here once before. I'll post again as to whether I can access my zip after the re-install. I also get weird messages when booting.... cannot find hda6....accessing hda6 -Joe -Joe
