[SWLUG] Renaming a device in Ubuntu

Hi,

I have an external hard disk formatted as ext4:

$ df -h
dev/sdb1             230G   49G  181G  22% /media/2010_BLACK_

$ e2label /dev/sdb1
2010_BLACK

It used to be called /media/2010_BLACK but there was an accident and
ever since Ubuntu now uses this new name with the underscore at the end.

Is is possible to force Ubuntu to use the original name again?

Thanks!
