you need a method for a generic USB stick:
you may want to play with udev directly:
udev can set up default privilegies and default ownership:
I can only guide you here, because udev is evolving:
the set up for Lenny and  for Squeeze are not the same.
(I have to update my obsoleted Lenny udev files on my Squeeze boxes).
Google may help you further.
