how to make root user read all

I want to know what i can set up so that root user can read everything. On my Solaris systems root can read the following directory.

drwxrwx--- 408 icsrc icarc0 36864 Aug 21 07:24 dev
drwxrwsr-x 7 icsrc icarc0 4096 Aug 4 1998 test

But on my linux systems it gets:
[root@machine archives]# cd dev
bash: cd: dev: Permission denied

Is there a difference in the way linux mounts? Or is there an option to let root user mount this?

Frank
