It would help if you would tell us which guide you're using. Should you be using http://www.macsat.com/ipkg.php then read again as fdisk is invoked with different arguments ;)

Did you enable the FTP server in the webinterface? If not, your USB HD will not be mounted.
If found a way to work around this in the following tutorial

Hmmm sorry no idea then ... I've just today started to play with external USB storage, but didn't encounter THIS problem. I just connected the device, enabled ftp and all was fine. Cept that sometimes I needed to "umount /tmp/harddisk" in some cases and to do that I needed to "killall stupid-ftpd" ... but this won't solve YOUR special problem I think (of course you can give it a try, after reboot everything is back to normal)
Maybe your USB HD isn't properly recognized by the system :confused:
I'm not THAT good at that Linux stuff yet ...maybe someone else got an idea.
Ok, lets start with the beginning:
What is your device?
What is your firmware?
Post a systemlog here.
If you've enabled ftp, then you should be able to ftp to the device. Can you?
Why don't you just look for the proper name when you telnet to the AP?
cd /dev/XXX ....
ls
this should be enough for you to find proper device name..
