i have an hfs formatted ipod i'm having trouble with. i'm working my way
through the tutorial at:
http://www.gnu.org/software/gnupod/gnupod.html
when i get to the convert your ipod section i do:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sda bs=1M count=10
rmmod sbp2 && insmod sbp2
which both go fine, but then i try to use pc-fdisk:
/usr/sbin/pc-fdisk /dev/sda
and i get:
Unable to open /dev/sda
when i type rescan-scsi-bus.sh i get:
Host adapter 1 (ide-scsi) found.
Host adapter 0 (sbp2_0) found.

dmesg gives me something like:

and finally lsmod gives me:
