Desktop Executable

I am running Scientific Linux with a KDE desktop

I would like to create an executable on my desktop that will navigate to a certain directory and open root from that directory

ie. when I need to get root going for my research I normally do the following: open terminal
cd /media/my_externaldrive_name
/opt/root/bin/root

then I proceed to use root for whatever I'm doing.

So what I am asking is:
How do I go about making a script to execute those commands, one that could be placed on the desktop and merely double clicked whenever I need to get root going?

Thanks all,
