Hello,
I have a serious problem with external usb hard drives and a new
debian squeeze on a laptop.
The symptoms are
What it works:
- When I mount a previously an usb hard drive formatted using another
computer (linux or windows) the first time it mounts well, either by
command line as root or using user-space mounting under gnome, but
when I dismount it and mout again the partiition is unusable
- When I partition an usb hard drive I get all the disc corrupted
despite gparted or fdisk works well without error. If I try to mount
again on another computer it says that there is not partition table.
- When I try to format a partition already created on another computer
on command line it says nothing (the usual stuff with no errors) but
it doesn't work. If I do it using Disk Utility (graphical tool) I get
an error at the end saying the following:

I have just bought a 2TB USB HDD and, after copying 19GB files to it and
unplugging it, I connected it again and the partition is still there and
the backup files are there as well. No problems. It is a USB hard disk
drive. Buffalo Systems. I am running siduction distro (based on Debian
sid) with a 3.3 kernel.
