Paul,
If the drive has not been partitioned and formated. The question mark
should be replaced with the appropriate letter.
partition with 'fdisk /dev/sd?'
   make a partition and make it a linux partition (type 83)
then
format with 'mkfs.ext3 /dev/sd?1'
then 'mount   -t ext3   /dev/sd?1   /mountpoint'
Blake


It is partitioned, formated and works. I just have to mount it manually.
I would like it to mount automatically  on boot up.
