You'll probabily need to modify your /etc/fstab in order to make
automatic mounting/umounting removable devices work. Part of my
/etc/fstab is
#
# ------- So normal user can mount/umount removable devices------
#
/dev/hdc /cdrom iso9660 user,noauto,ro,exec,unhide /dev/fd0 /floppy msdos user,noauto,rw /dev/hdb4 /zip msdos user,noauto,rw # /dev/fd0 /floppy2 ext2 user,noauto,rw,exec /dev/hdb4 /zip2 ext2 user,noauto,rw,exec
#
# make sure the mounting points /cdrom /floppy ... are of mode 1777
# (chmod 1777 /cdrom) ...
