If you load the Free Agent Software, there is a utility for setting the power saving. You can set it to a number of different times including never. The default is 15 minutes. I think this is what you are experiencing. The settings are in the Utilities tab.

Once the drive is connected to your current PC, inser your UBUNTU disk, as you go through the installation procedure it will scan available drives and ask you whether you want to automatically install or manually install to a drive of your choice.

You have to select the latter and install to your external HDD. If you choose the auto option you could wipe your internal HDD and the operating system ............. be careful.
