I know it's kind of late but your problem is not related to his. Your
problem is due to the udev stuff in SuSE-10.0. The /dev directory gets
built from scratch every time you boot. The permissions on the block
devices are set in the file
/etc/udev/rules.d/50-udev.rules
SUBSYSTEM=="block", GROUP="disk", MODE="0640"
