Usually you have to specify a partition - you're trying to mount the
whole disk, and it probably has at least one partition on it.

Under most unix variants, you can run fdisk or similar against the
device to look at the partition table.  Alternatively, in linux you
can look at /proc/partitions to get the table size.
