I can't say much about that, since I've never used Bluecurve, but others might be able to offer some advice.
Even more fundamental than making an icon representing the drive appear on the desktop though, is ensuring the drive has a mount point under RH and is accessible to the system. Is the drive listed under /etc/fstab? Can you navigate to it using some graphical file manager, for example? I'm no so experienced with Linux user administration, so I'll have to let someone else handle explaining how to make the drive appear on all user desktops.
