I'm not sure if this question is an autofs question or perhaps for some other 
software component.
I have a couple of external USB hard drives with NTFS partitions each with 
different volume names eg HDD1 and HDD2
If I connect these one at a time they both come up as /dev/sde and I have an 
autofs entry like 
usb     -fstype=ntfs-3g :/dev/sde1

This mounts one drive as /misc/usb

This works fine except it would be ideal if each drive actually mounted as 
/misc/HDD1 and /misc/HDD2 so that scripts can more easily differentiate the 
disks

If I log in using Gnome then this seems to have no problem mounting each drive 
and placing an icon on the desktop using the volume label. However, I almost 
never use Gnome and the machine in question is a server.
