Enabling external HDD

In a Kubuntu 7.04 system, I have a USB-attached HDD that I intend to use
primarily for file backup, but have not discovered how to configure and
enable it.
The "Disk & File Systems - System Settings" screen reports this device with
:
Name Mount Point Type Device
Enabled
Removable USB Disk SP1203N
1 Partition 108.9 Gb /usb ext3 /dev/sda1
Disabled
2 Partition 1.0 Kb /media/floppy0 auto /def/fd0
Disabled
5 Partition 2.9 Gb none swap /dev/sda5
Enabled
What must I do to enable the first partition? (The "modify" subscreen of
"Disk & File Systems - System Settings" does not seem to provide for this,
even after I modified its Mount Permissions to permit any user.)
The just-mentioned "modify" screen does provide an "Enable at start up"
toggle, which I turned on before rebooting the system. However, doing this
did not relieve the problem.
Cheerio, Henry
