Access shares from iomega home media drive nas

I have successfully mounted the shares of the NAS. I still have not been able to get them to automount at start up, i need to add a sleep command but am unsure of how, ill be reading about this.

I’m going to write the steps i took, it may help others, and also for a reference.

After install of Ubuntu Mate

followed Not seeing Windows network?

then open terminal
sudo -i
(to become root user)

mkdir /media/NAS/Movies
mkdir /media/NAS/Music
mkdir /media/NAS/Photos
mkdir /media/NAS/Public

cd /media/NAS
ls
(to verify folder creation)

cp -p -a /etc/fstab /etc/fstab-old

su nate
cd ~
id nate
to get uid and gid

sudo -i

gedit /etc/fstab
was prompted to install gedit

added into fstab

mount -a

this mounts all the shares, but most run sudo mount -a at startup. Reading about sleep command for it wait, unsure of what and where to put it.
