Are we talking about USB Memory here? If so, I have not seen this issue. I've never used USB Memory while logged in as root. I'm using CentOS 5 (32 bit).

Yes the usb stick/memory mounts correctly, but then they are not allowed to unmount it, using for example umount /media/device We are using Centos5.2 64bit
I see that you are using 64 bit, I'm using 32 bit, but I doubt that this would work differently, between the 2 versions of the OS. As Mark (mhr) wrote, if you use GNOME, just right click the icon, to unmount the USB stick.
You are correct we could use konqueror, we use kde, to unmount but if a CD/DVD is mounted correctly to allow a user to unmount why can't a USB memory device ?
