For info if you havea big HDD and the following error message: "Memory allocation failed while setting up superblock", it means that an active swap is mandatory to achieve formatting.
After rebooting execute the following commands:
1. You may have to unmount /dev/sda1 first: umount /dev/sda1
2. Create root file system: mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda1
3. Create a swap space: mkswap /dev/sda2
4. If necessary, use this swap space now: swapon /dev/sda2
5. Create the home file system: mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda3 [This will take longest.]
Reboot again.
When you log in with FTP, you're located in /root (not into /)
double click on parent directory ( noted .. ) , and you'll be into /
From there, you should find all sub-directories, including /media or /hdd**************
