I have some additional information to further clarify the mount/umount issue:
From a straight boot up, mount/umount works normally. Thanks go bad wheneverI run redhat-config-packages and attempt to install additional packages from
the distribution disks. redhat-config-packages refuses to mount the
distribution disk it is calling for. The only choice I have is to abort the
package install. There is an entry in /var/log/messages:

This message isn't a fatal error, it is produced any time you run a program that requires root privileges as a non-privileged user. This message should be followed by a pop-up for the root password.
