I did it by rebooting the system and logging in as root. Ok. Now comes the new problem. The fdisk -l command told me the second hard disk is called hdb1 (I mean the part of the HD where the data are). It also told me that the external HD is called sda or something like that. But when I issue the mount command for the hdb1 I receive a message that tells me that the hdb1 device does not exist in the etc/fstab and etc/mtab files. The syntax I used is: mount dev/hdb1 /home/berto/ubik ubik being a folder I created for the second HD. Is there a mistake in my command syntax, or should I directly edit the fstab file? I understand doing that ain't that simple, though... I might also copy more accurately what the fdisk command produces, if that may help.
