Somebody in the thread at some point said:
One other point that I didn't mention before: The only way to
get the
/dev/sde4 created is to boot the system WITH a disk inside the ZIP drive.
...
Disk /dev/sde: 0 cylinders, 255 heads, 63 sectors/track
0 cylinders....
Jul 28 15:02:23 estreet kernel: attempt to access beyond end of
device
Jul 28 15:02:23 estreet kernel: sde: rw=0, want=196392, limit=1
limit = 1... it's clearly not able to interrogate the drive to find out
the geometry properly...
I guess I would first stick it in Bugzilla at Fedora
