Well my friend... if your mini recognize the usb hdd (dmesg will show you this), you can simply create a directory: "mkdir /usbhdd" (without ") and then still on shell type:

"mount -t ntfs /dev/device /usbhdd" (without ")

Where the device part is the disk you are using. Dmesg will inform you this...
