Can't reach external hdd via ftp

Yep!
I see many lines in /var/log/audit/audit.log containing "sda1" or
"muzika" similar to this line:
type=AVC msg=audit(1140640101.729:211): avc:  denied  { getattr } for 
pid=8717 comm="proftpd" name="/" dev=sda1 ino=128
scontext=root:system_r:ftpd_t tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t
tclass=dir


And my /var/log/messages files are empty:

# l /var/log/messages*
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Feb 19 04:04 /var/log/messages
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Feb 12 04:13 /var/log/messages.1
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Feb  5 04:06 /var/log/messages.2
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Jan 29 04:11 /var/log/messages.3
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Jan 22 04:06 /var/log/messages.4

That's a bit weird, isn't it?
