Change default Network storage (nas) disk name / mount

[cali]

Hello. Is there any way to change default NAS mount point where USB flash mouts from /tmp/mountd/disk1_part1 ?

Now if I manually mount USB Flash to /storage - NAS is not working (don’t load shared folders when i want to add it) and I can’t find way to change it.

Hi

Could you clarify why you need to change the mount point of the USB device to a different location?

If it’s only for easier access via SSH, you might consider using a symbolic link instead:

ln -s /tmp/mountd/disk1_part1 /storage

Thanks for the reply, will.qiu.
I need it for some docker tricks.
Tho, I’ve found that /tmp/mountd/disk1_part1 is hardcoded in /usr/bin/gl_nas_client, /usr/bin/gl_nas_sys and etc.. and think there’s no way to change it except recompiling those ELF…

…and for future researchers: manually editing /etc/config/gl_nas/disk.db changes nothing and just breaking NAS functionality.

Sorry for the late reply.

If this is related to Docker, we believe that directly specifying directory for docker using under /tmp/mountd/disk1_part1 should not be an issue. As well as using a symbolic link should work properly with Docker.

Could you clarify whether this is causing any specific problems on your end?
