I don't know if you've gotten any help with this so far. I have another
200 or so messages from the Mandrake lists to read yet :^).
So in case you haven't, the problem that I see is the lack of "user" in
the /etc/fstab. The following entries need to be and have been changed
to allow for users to mount and unmount the components.
none /mnt/cdrom supermount
dev=/dev/scd0,fs=auto,ro,user,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
none /mnt/cdrom2 supermount
dev=/dev/hdd,fs=auto,user,ro,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,codepage=850 0 0
none /mnt/floppy supermount
dev=/dev/fd0,fs=auto,user,--,iocharset=iso8859-1,sync,codepage=850 0 0
none /mnt/removable supermount
dev=/dev/sda1,fs=ext2:vfat,--,user,codepage=850,kudzu,iocharset=iso8859-1

none /mnt/zip supermount

none /mnt/camera supermount

The other entries either have "user" included already or don't need it
for user access.
