Well, I'm not wishng to be a wet blanket, but I have exactly the same Desktop Icon setup problem with Supermount, and gave up , in favour of automount in the end. I tried getting the supermount desktop Icons created in MCC to work and failed.

How would I go about setting up automount in favor of supermount. I know how to disable supermount, just wanted a pointer to using automount.
Thanks
It's about amending your fstab to set automount . I know how to set rom and writer to automount , but I have never owned a zip drive, and therefore cannot advise on that.
Put a # in front of the old supermount fstab entries , they all begin with None
here are my dvd and writer entries, all one line for each device,
/dev/scd0 /mnt/cdrom auto user,iocharset=iso8859-15,umask=0,exec,codepage=850,ro,noauto 0 0
/dev/scd1 /mnt/cdrom2 auto user,iocharset=iso8859-15,umask=0,exec,codepage=850,ro,noauto 0 0
where in my case /dev/scd0 is my dvd, and /dev/scd1 is my writer, and mounted in /mnt directory as cdrom, and cdrom2, adjust yours accordingly.
Now I have both devices scsi-emulated , I don't think you do ?
If one of your devices is not scsi-emulated then that device will be /dev/hd(x) where (x) is the drive letter (usually c or d )
If on the otherhand you would like to use both devices scsi-emulated then you must add an amendment in /etc/lilo.conf to scsi-emulate it.
