I've just added a USB hard drive and it auto-mounts as /media/CLASSIC_SL

I wish to re-format the device and then automount the partitions to various points on the root file structure i.e. /data1 /data2 etc.

how can I stop the device from automounting as /media/CLASSIC_SL? I think the device node is /dev/sdb, how can I enforce this for all subsequent reboots of the machine? Assuming I can enforce as /dev/sdb I guess I can add the device to /etc/fstab with the required mount points?
