The whole disk is /dev/hdd; the first partition is /dev/hdd1. Try
partitioning the disk again; then create the file system on the first
partition, instead of on the whole disk, with "mkfs /dev/hdd1" instead of
"mkfs /dev/hdd". Although it takes much longer, you might consider
"mkfs -c /dev/hdd1" to check for bad blocks before building the file
system.
