Actually, what should be do is to attach an action to the CDROM/Floppy icon which essential does a "su -c mount "/dev/(fd0|cdrom) /mnt/(fd0|cdrom)"", which will then prompt for the password. On the other hand, keeping in mind the sudo solution and action could be created to do the above using sudo, which would negate the need for a password. - --- Kim C.
