Thank you for the feedback.
I discovered that solution of disabling root privileges as you described
below. Two other situations to resolve:
On boot all other non-essential drives are auto-mounted (XP, W7, Centos
partitions). How can I just have a list of drives that I do want mounted
or none at all.
How to make this happen?
I do believe you can disable this by changing the key in
apps>nautilus>preferences>media_automount (untick box).
Get to this by using gconf-editor (ALT-F2 and type gconf-editor).
The root login I think you can enable to show up on user list in GDM by
editing /etc/gdm/gdm.schemas and remove root from the hidden user list
(this is on ubuntu, so it may be the old way still in debian, editing
/etc/gdm/gdm.conf).
A better way would be to make a shortcut or launcher with command
'gksudo nautilus' if you want to be able to manage files as root in the
GUI. Don't even have to logout then.
