So, if I get this right, /mnt/share isn't currently mounted (df will
tell you), you give the above command (either) and get the error
message...  then /mnt/share IS mounted and accessible?? Earlier on in
the thread you said everything works (depsite the error message). What
exactly do you mean?

What happens if you just try a "mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/share" ?

A linux partition definitely exists on /dev/sda4? (fdisk -l)
You've made a filesystem on it? (mkfs.ext3)

Do you have data on there that you don't wish to lose? If not, you
could try running "mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda4" (careful with this, pause and
think 2 seconds before pressing enter :)
Then, once mkfs completely successfully, immediately try mounting it.
If that doesn't work, I'd be getting worried :)

Cheers,
Gareth
