[arm-allstar] Having trouble accessing archiveaudio files on other machines

[Doug Crompton]

One other thing... The name that is assigned on automount is probably going
to be some long crazy name  - /media/.................   This is the ID
number of the card. To avoid this relabel the stick to something
meaningful. You can use gparted in a graphic Linux system or in windows
check this ....

In my original howto on archivedir I showed it labelled as MS1  meaning in
my head mass storage 1. Label it whatever you want and then you can use
this short path like /media/MS1  when referencing it. Also remember Linux
is case sensitive so MS1 is not the same as ms1.
