In the end of the day, I found a solution to get the (fast) CIFS-mount permanently.
It is a bit tricky, however, it works:
0) As usual: Create a full image-backup of your system before you start!
1) Delete all mounts (if any) by using the mount manager under Menu/settings/system/network/mount-manager/edit mounts
(or similar, as I am using the German version)
2) Delete all mounts by using the telnet command
"umount /media/xxx"
respectively
"umount /media/net/xxx"
(xxx is your enigma2 mountpoint for the network-mount)
repeatedly if necessary.
(To check if all mount are deleted use the telnet-command "mount")
3) Reboot
4) Install a CIFS-mount in the "normal" way:
Menu/settings/system/network/mount-manager/add new mount
(well knowing that the transmission speed will be rather low)
5) Change the options entry in the "automount.xml" file (it is located in "root/etc/enigma2")
from
"<options>rw</options>"
to
"<options>rw,soft,tcp,nolock,rsize=8192,wsize=8192</options>"
5) Change the network portion in the "fstab" file (it is located in "root/etc")
from
//192.168.nnn.nnn/"yourPCsshare" /media/net/"yourE2mount" cifs rw,username="Your PC-share username",password="Your PC-share userpassword",_netdev 0 0
to
//192.168.nnn.nnn/"yourPCsshare" /media/net/"yourE2mount" cifs rw,rsize=8192,wsize=8192,username="Your PC-share username",password="Your PC-share userpassword",_netdev 0 0
6) Reboot
That's it! Now your mount will work at a decent speed.
BTW: I was using FileZilla as ftp-client, DCC for applying the telnet commands.
