Hmm, is this really the relevant log entry? Somehow i think this

1) > kernel:  /dev/scsi/host4/bus0/target0/lun0:<3>Buffer I/O error on device
   > sda, logical block 0
2) > Dec 20 15:44:45 aca-vnt kernel:  unable to read partition table

is more important. Two questions to the OP: 

 - is this disk allready formated? (does it have a filesystem)?
   Without a filesystem automaounting can'T work :-)

 - 'I/O error' sounds nasty - is it possible that the disk is damaged?
   (the kernel tries to read block 0 on the device (to read the partition
    table) but the device (disk) reports an error.
