The hard drive in brother's external IDE was once JFS, but is now
formatted NTFS. I had the exact same problem. HAL kept thinking it was
JFS.
This is how I "fixed" my problem. In
/etc/hal/fdi/policy/preferences.fdi, I added this....
<device>
<match key="volume.uuid" string="af6af532-eea3-435f-9b29-2340447d2375">
<merge key="volume.fstype" type="string">ntfs</merge>
<merge key="volume.fsusage" type="string">filesystem</merge>
<merge key="volume.fsversion" type="string">3.1</merge>
</match>
</device>
It seems to work.
