I ran into this one also. I also installed via usb thumb drive, but my
/etc/fstab had lines for both a cdrom AND a floppy. I had to comment
both out to work.

#/dev/sdc1       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0
#/dev/sdc        /media/floppy0  auto    rw,user,noauto,exec,utf8 0       0

Status in Ubuntu Eee: In Progress

Bug description:
Version: Ubuntu eee 8.0.4.1
System: eeePC 1000H

When inserting a USB drive, the drive will show up on the right side dock, but an error message pops up stating that the drive could not be mounted, in looking at the details of the error, it is stating that Super-User privileges are required.

editing the /etc/fstab file  ( sudo vi /etc/fstab ) and commenting out the cdrom entires will fix this problem.
This issue exists with ubuntu eee 8.04 as well.
