probably a simple problem with permissions

I am probably understanding this problem incorrectly meaning there is a
simple explanation that is escaping me. My /dev/cd0 is owned by root so
I have tried to change both the owner and the group so I can use it as a
user.
I have tried:
chmod 777 /dev/cd0
chmod -R 777 /dev/cd0
chgrp 777 /dev/cd0
The problem is that when I reboot the system the old permissions return
and I have to su and change the permissions back. How do I make these
changes permanent? There is probably a security reason for this but it
is very inconvenient on a desktop station. Any help would be
appreciated. I am running 5.3.
