do you not partition your drive first? even if you're using the entire
device? I'd expect to see this as /dev/sdf1 (or 2 or 3 or
whatever). I'm not certain you -HAVE- to do such a thing.. and if I
were a better person I'd experiment with a VM... (which I may still do,
but it's friday, I'm still at work and I'm ready to go home)
