Ok, I did some experimenting :) Update:

In the original housing, linux won't boot. It's a LaCie housing, including a 
bus powered USB-SerialATA converter. lsusb states:
Bus 002 Device 002: ID 059f:101a LaCie, Ltd
It does freeze during boot on Bus 001 and Bus 002, no matter if the additional 
5V 1A power source is attached or not. In this housing, however, Jaunty did 
boot. Karmic does freeze.

In a self-powered (wall outlet) USB-SATA-converter, Karmic does boot without 
freeze. lsusb says:
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 13fd:1240 Initio Corporation
It boots on all busses here.

If I can use the LaCie-converter without a problem with another
SATA-2.5"HDD, once Karmic booted with the Initio converter....
strange...

Just for information: the HDD is a Samsung HM250JI, Firmware HS100-08
