Although I certainly sure that I do already use the fdisk and mkfs on Hdd , I will do it again. But is there any other reason for that for ex. setting jumper on hdd?
After I do 'mkfs' it and set the fstab to ext3 then I reboot the system , the FC3 cannot mount the /dev/hdd1 and the system hang up for a long time [more than 1/2 hour] and it asked for root password to enter the system to recover and I must marked the fstab /dev/hdd1 and then reboot , the server will boot properly but the fstab will then automatically create the line
dev/hdd1 /mnt/idedisk1 auto amconsole,exec,noauto,managed 0 0
and the fourth system will be read only and could not be unmount.

Have you put a file system on it yet? If not you can use mkfs to do that.
