I was able to remove the NTFS partition and repartition the HD as a type Linux (83). Next I created the ext3 file system.

If I reboot with the USB drive attached, the boot process hangs, however if I turn off the drive, boot and then turn it on, all is fine.

# cat /etc/fstab

shows the drive, but I am not sure how to use it for a backup nor do I know how to access it. Any help would be appreciated. The drive is /dev/sda1.



>From terminal You can do:

mkdir /mnt/usb
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usb

and You will have Your stick in /mnt/usb

After You finish Your work, You can
umount /mnt/usb
