Make easier:
1. Format your HDD via PC in NTFS (for example) so as to have a single partition.
2. In the Black Hole Devices Manger see your HDD. (dev/sdb1 - for example).
3. Installing on your PC a text editor for UNIX-format (EditPad for example). Make it the default editor for Total Commander.
3. Connect to your receiver via FTP of Total Commander. Open the file for editing /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh (select and press F4).
4. Enter your line (for example):
mount /dev/sdb1 /media/hdd
5. Save. The file attribute should remain the same - 755!
sda, sdb, sdc - it's available drives connected to your device.
sdb1 ... sdb5 - is available partitions on your HDD (sdb - for an example)
That's all that I can to help.
P.S. Excuse me for my English.

Your HDD (dev/sdb5) may be mounted via Black Hole Devices Manger? If not, then your disk not formatted correctly. This is the reason. Format the HDD again with a single partition.

Sorry guys but there is some misinformation here...NTFS format HDDs can be mounted as in this thread:
http://www.vuplus-community.net/boa...lready-ntfs-formated-usb-hdd.4636/#post-88934
You do not have to reformat if you dont want to.
Good luck!

Fantome posted the question incorrectly into a thread about HDD which probably mislead you or you just did not pay attention when reading. Anyway, we were talking about USB flash disk not HDD.
Ha. My bad. But blame fantome
