I don't use parted. (Some do but I never had the need.) Instead I use
fdisk.

1) What I do is run fdisk /dev/hdb and create the partitions the way I
want them.  It sounds like all you need is one partition so create it.
Then you should have a partition /dev/hdb1.
fdisk -l should now show it.

2) Format the partition (mke2fs -j /dev/hdb1) will give you an ext3
filesystem.

3) Mount it at the location of your choice

4) Edit /etc/fstab to make it mount when you reboot 
How do I do that please?

Use to your hearts content.
