how to run my app in privileged mode

Hi,
I wish to access disk sectors using open() and pread(). but it fails for the system disk.
So how can I get the user to type in admin passwd and then run my app in privileged mode.
Please point me to any sample code etc.
I tried ""BetterAuthorizationSample" code from apple, but using it to access disk sectors is 10 times slower then open() and pread(), cause it installs a helper tool in the system and to get sectors from it is slow.


Wishes,
Nick
