Well, I found a workaround for my spesific problem: start the OS installation again, go to the screen where you can format/partition hard-drives. I did what I had to do there, then cancelled the installation and rebooted. Now I can mount/unmount the hard drive and I can use it. However, If I try to format it, then I get the error message again.
