On my desktop I can see my ZIP iomega (internal) icon..
when I am a normal user, if I click it it says:

UNABLE TO ENTER file/mnt/zip.
You do not have the access rights to this location

what I have to do?

When I enter into my system as root, the icon in the file browser is locked, if I click it as root it says: you don't have enough permissions for this...
I've looked in with the right mouse button/properties and all the rights like read write execute ecc were checked...
what the hell?
I'm running MDK 8.2

The permissions you're looking at could just be for the desktop shortcut to the zip drive. Either use konquerer or whatever to navigate to /mnt, or try opening up a console window and typing:

cd /mnt
ls -la

this should give you a listing from which you can get the permissions for that file, and rather than explaining that here, I'll give you a link (http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/bsd/2000/09/06/FreeBSD_Basics.html).
