mount: /dev/sda4 is not a valid block device

Hey,

I have a SATA WD harddisk of 250 GB (/dev/sda) with the following specifications:

Code:

Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

Device Boot         Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1   *           1        2611    20972826   83  Linux
/dev/sda2            2612        5222    20972857+  83  Linux
/dev/sda3            5223        5483     2096482+  82  Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda4            5484       30401   200153835    b  W95 FAT32

The first three partitions were made during the installation.
/dev/sda4 was created with fdisk and afterwards formatted with a live-cd as a FAT32 partition.

Unfortunately I am unable to mount /dev/sda4 to /mnt/Data. "mount: /dev/sda4 is not a valid block device".

What do I wrong?
(I'm working with FC5)

Thanks, ADJ
