10.04 fstab problems

[willinilli]

OK.. When booting into Ubuntu 10.04 ( recently upgraded.. or not:) Get the following message:

The disc drive for / is not ready yet or not present
Continue to wait; or press S to skip mounting or M for manual recovery.

Have read somewhere maybe an fstab problem..BUt have no idea how to sort it any help greatly appreciated..
ie how do i get permission to edit fstab and what do I edit it to..

Cheers

usbfs is no longer supported, remove that line from your fstab and all will be well.

UUID=250ae3b0-f499-4a32-8742-de8a8733d90e / ext3 relatime,errors=re3mount-ro 0 1Is that a typo? It should read:

UUID=250ae3b0-f499-4a32-8742-de8a8733d90e / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
