Hi all,

I've been using piCorePlayer for a while now with a USB flashdrive
plugged into my router as my main source of music.  Took me a bit of
trial and error but eventually worked out the right settings to mount
the USB using CIF.  Worked like a charm - nice cheap, super responsive
NAS!! :-)

Flash forward to yesterday when I upgraded my router to a new one which
insists on naming my USB share volume "volume(sda1)".    Unfortunately
the Setup Network Disk Mount UI doesn't let me put parentheses into the
'Share name' field (I get a 'Please match the requested format error'
message) so I don't see any way to get it to mount.

I copied the mount command that pCp was generating and fixed the share
name how I wanted it just to confirm that this command does work when I
remote into the Pi and run it myself:

mount -v -t cifs -o username=user,vers=1.0,uid=1001,gid=50
//192.168.1.1/"volume(sda1)" /mnt/mymusic

Question is, how can I trick pCp so that it does this every time it
boots?  fstab seems to get regenerated on restart so I couldn't just
stick it in there.  And the router doesn't seem to have any options to
change the name.

I exhausted all my very limited Linux knowledge getting this far.  Just
wondering if there's any config file somewhere that I can manually
update to get around the UI's restrictions?

Thanks!
