I have connected my externel HDD in Ubuntu 9.04 jaunty over firewire
now, and turned it on, the systemlog displayes the following :

2009-04-15 19:39:59	gst	kernel	[25572.676868] scsi 11:0:0:0: Direct-Access-RBC WDC WD20 00JB-00DUA0           PQ: 0 ANSI: 4

2009-04-15 19:39:59	gst	kernel	[25572.966627]  sde: sde1

Even if it displays sde1 there , it comes to no mount or appearing in KDE's Device Manager.
Even a manaul mount will fail :

i used fdisk to find information about this hdd but this fails too :

Platte /dev/sde: 200.0 GByte, 200049647616 Byte
255 Köpfe, 63 Sektoren/Spuren, 24321 Zylinder  
Einheiten = Zylinder von 16065 × 512 = 8225280 Bytes
Disk identifier: 0x774f0373                         

Festplatte /dev/sde enthält keine gültige Partitionstabelle (HDD does
not contain a valid Partitionrecord)

It does not show me a filesystem.

The HDD is formatted with the NTFS File system.

a manual mount will fail with the following error :

spook at gst:~$ sudo mount /dev/sde1 test
[sudo] password for spook:            
mount: Sie müssen den Dateisystemtyp angeben  
(You have to specifey the filesstem type)

When i connect the same box over USB all works.

This worked correctly under Hardy 8.04 last time.
