[Linux-usb-users] usb external hard disk - please help!

[stefano procaccioli]

Hy to all,

first of all, I apologize for my ignorance (and for my english too...) and, 
if you consider my mail not to be sent, please tell me. It is the first 
time I ask help in a mailing list.

	I bought an external usb 2.0 enclosure for 2,5 inches IDE hard disk. I 
have Mandrake 9.0. It seems to recognize the drive but i can't mount it. If 
I use the utility of mandrake for partitioning disks, it sees the drive, 
its dimension ecc. but it doesn't see the partition (that windows sees - 
fat 32) and it can't modify it; if I delete the existing one in order to 
make another new one, it tell me that it can't write the partition table.

	The disk is a normal hitachi 2,5 inches disk put in the usb 2.0 enclsure 
of the factory named "Manhattan".

	What can I do in order to make it working? I looked for in internet but I 
didn't find anything... |:<(

Thank you

Stefano
