/etc/fstab

[rational_gaze]

alright , well basicly i'm having some problems with the fstab after doing some changes to it (and I didn't create any backup file of it). First of all i started messing around with it cuz i was not able to get my dvd player mounted and then i realized that I could do some changes,specificly to the harddrives lines just to be able to write and read on the harddrive(FAT) and to read another harddrive formated as NTFS.
So after doing those changes I'm not getting the harddrives mounted even my linux harddisk partition neither the dvd player so Fab5 what can I do just to get everything workin' properly?

this is my fstab :
/dev/sdb3       /               reiserfs notail          0       1
/dev/sda1       /media/sda1     vfat    defaults,umask=000        0      0
/dev/sdb1       /media/sdb1     ntfs    defaults,ro,umask=000        0      0
/dev/sdb2       none            swap    sw              0       0
/dev/hdc        /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0
/dev/fd0        /media/floppy0  auto    rw,user,noauto  0       0

and well hope anyone can help me plz!!!.

Just an idea, download the Ubuntu/Kubuntu iso LiveCD not the InstallCD, create the LiveCD and boot with this one. Or even with a Knoppix, in any case must be a LiveCD.

Once booted with LiveCD:

1 backup your files on a usb key (for example)
2 copy the /etc/fstab on LiveCD on /dev/sda1 monted (see read/write procedure)
3 reboot with the installed based
