If you formatted the entire drive, then it will have problems. You may also have to give the partition a label before it will auto-mount. (I thought they fixed that in one of the updates, but I could be wrong.) Unlabeled media should still get mounted in /media, with a generic name... (It is late, and I don't remember if gparted will make a file system without a partition...) Mikkel -- Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for thou art crunchy and taste good with Ketchup!
