Hi,

permissions for removable devices are handled through ConsoleKit. If you
are logging in from init 3, you need to start a ConsoleKit session
manually. Add the command "ck-launch-session" to /usr/bin/startlxde,
probably right at the beginning in line 2.

If you use a login manager, this will happen automatically. I suggest to
use lxdm or lightdm-gtk, they don't have many dependencies. You then
need to enable runlevel 5 as described in
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Systemd#How_do_I_change_the_default_runlevel.3F

Kind regards,
Christoph
