David is right here. It sounds definitely like a udev problem. 

Does:
  [kay at pim ~]$ udevinfo -q all -p /block/hda/hda1
  P: /block/hda/hda1
  N: hda1
  S: 

print anything like that? If not remove all /dev/.udev* files or
directories and run /sbin/udevstart again to recreate the database and
try udevinfo again.

good luck,
Kay
