[olug] chmod u+s

if you have 'defaults' as your mount option in
/etc/fstab, then suid is set.  the mount command
doesnt output all of the mounted options for some
crazy reason (security?).

Why not use sudo?  I have heard suid is disabled in
some kernels....(if that's possible).

It didn't work for me either in FC1...but sudo works
beautifully!
