[ale] usb-storage

I just connected an 8GB HDD to my linux box using an external USB -> IDE box.  When 2.2.16-20 (RH 7.0) boots, It sees my USB ports but stated that the device

connected is not supported by any loaded driver.  I then excuted "modprobe usb-storage' and the kernel message was 'USB storeage support registered'.  I did

not see mention of the HDD.  Is there a missing step?  What device nodes do I use to partition and format this drive?


Thanks,
Chris
