What does dmesg say ?  If it says something about capacity unknown, try
to remove the SCSI ID (by software, ie scsi remove-single-device,
see /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi/scsi.c for details), and then add it
again with a floppy inside.

/dev/sda4 is not seen as a block device, maybe because its size is
zero.
