Description Jacek Jablonski 2006-10-17 15:53:18 UTC 
Version:           3.5.5 (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Unlisted Binary Package
OS:                Linux

When trying to access root ("/" - hda9) partition from konqueror's media:/ folder, it gives 
Permission Denied. All other partitions are accessible (/home - hda10, /boot - hda 8). Also hda9 icon shows that it is unmounted, but according to mtab it is mounted:
/dev/hda9 / ext3 rw 0 0

piece of /etc/fstab:
/dev/hda9 / ext3 defaults 0 1
/dev/hda10 /home ext3 defaults 0 1
/dev/hda8 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1

Only hda9 gives this error.

Also cdrom and dvdrom devices are invisble under media:/. They shows after putting cd. After putting cd inside my DVD, this cdrom shows as unmounted cd recorder (instead of dvd)
I am using arch linux.
