Journaled or not journaled???
Are you sure it wasn't journaled? Because I have tried to format the drive both ways: journaled and not journaled. I then unmount the drive, plug it into the AEBS, within a few seconds the AEBS shows in the finder of all my computers, but the drive still doesn't show in the Time Machine prefs. You need to connect to the drive first (if you hadn't done it before). And then it shows in the Time Machine prefs, but (in my case) only if I enabled journaling on the drive when I formatted it.
In my experience, only a journaled drive will show up in the Time Machine prefs. Anybody else?
I am not doing partitions, but just used Mac OS extended and it worked. I was just getting ready to research the difference between journaled, etc.
