You can call the mount point anything you want. If the user want's to type 
mount /mnt/zip100.0, well ok then. I perfer mount /mnt/zip or mount 
/girlfriend myself (Oddly enough, my girlfriend did find that amusing...no 
stop thinking like that. I was backing up her computer....ok...enough of my 
personal life.)

So some things to check:
modprobe usb-storage
lsmod should show
usb-uhci, usbcore, and usb-starage

Ignore the GUI. You need to see error messages. 
type mount /mnt/zip100.0

They try (as root) mount -t vfat /dev/sdd4 /mnt/zip100.0

Also, check your logs as others have suggested.
