Having devices only mountable as root is a security precaution I suppose...  user 'dsl' has sudo access anyways so I don't see any problem.  This isn't just for usb partitions in particular either.  However, you can create a directory that's owned by user 'dsl' i.e. in /cdrom - or another point that is already mounted writeable by root (depending on setup).

Also, what exactly is a "reversed-usb-zip type installation"? usb-hdd?
