Here it is.

/etc/fstab:
 
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>

The device shows uip in the devices list in a file browser, but still
gives the same errors when attempting to mount. I plugged it in to my
other Ubuntu box, also running Hardy and it mounted normally. Whatever
the problem is resides on this machine.
