 Tried that...

 The *only* place to do that, is when you mount the drive.

 That's it. I can't be bothered learning Linux names for standard
functions. I can see why it's so popular. It goes back to the 80's
when everything was made as difficult as possible. At present, I'm
trying to work out a way to print "man" entries in the man format.
The actual file doesn't seem to be any known format, but it works
really well on screen. I suspect that a uniwanker invented his own
format... (for no good reason).

Regards,
Bob
