Can't partition disk

[ClockworkPlum]

Hello,

I am trying to install Fedora 10 on a removable USB HDD (NTFS) but when I choose the option "remove all partitions and create default layout" it reports this bug:
[I]

/tmp/lvmout:
Running... ['lvm', 'pvcreate', '-ff', '-y', '-v', '/dev/sdb2'][/I]

When I use the other options this is what it reports:

Could not allocate requested partitions:

Partitioning failed: Could not allocate partitions as primary partitions.
Not enough space left to create partition for /boot.

The following errors occurred with your partitioning:

You have not defined a root partition (/), which is required for installation of Fedora to continue.

This can happen if there is not enough space on your hard drive(s) for the installation.

Press 'OK' to choose a different partitioning option.

However, the disk is 120GB free. Anyone help? :confused:
