I've never done this before, but here's what I think anyway. The device you're using, /dev/sda4, is trying to access SCSI disk 'a' (the first scsi disk), partition '4'. Now, you're getting messages complaining that the partition table is incomprehensible to Linux (probably because there *is no* partition table per-se since it's been Mac'ed). Why don't you try '/dev/sda' as the device. Just my thoughts. I could be wrong. -- Jens B.
