Ok so, here's the thing. I have an 256GB SSD and a 2TB HDD in my system. I had windows 7 on the SSD until a couple of days ago and ubuntu on a partition on my HDD. Not so familiar with ubuntu btw, just getting into it.



I had some issuse with windows so I decided to switch to ubuntu full time, but I needed to keep windows for some essential software.



Ok, main story now. Ubuntu on SSD, no problem. Had windows on a partition on the HDD, but it didn't boot.

At this point I already switched to ubuntu and made both partitions of the HDD, the storage one and the windows one, auto-mount on startup.

I did this through the "Disks" application(program? idk, new to ubuntu). When I realized windows won't boot, I went to gparted, formated the partition, deleted it, recreated it and reinstalled windows on it, but I changed the name of the partition from "New Volume" to "windows".



Apparently, the setting that auto-mounts "New Volume" is still active and it's trying to mount a drive that no longer exists since I'm getting that message before startup.



How can I fix this? Is there some way I can see the list of auto-mounting drives in the terminal so I can delete them? I've googled for about 2 hours with nothing similar to my situation so I came here. Sorry if it's already been answered somewhere.



Thanks in advance.

Make backup:



sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab_backup


Then remove just that line of /media/natkoui/New040Volume



sudo gedit /etc/fstab
