Just as a side point, wouldn't the easiest way be to run the script
under sudo?
It's safer imho than putting the sudo password in programmatically...

os.system is a very basic way of running a program.
You should use the newer subprocess module and the Popen() class.
There are examples in the documentation.
Also, basic usage is described in my Using the OS topic in my
tutorial.
