Question Answered By: Adah Miller   on Dec 03

To edit this file, you will need to open it from the terminal w/ super user
priveledges (i.e., gksudo gedit /ect/fstab)

I suspect the issue may be the space in "New Volume" and you would need to
add a slash ("\" to escape the space and get it to load correctly like
follows:

UUID=1674A84474A82907 /media/New\ Volume ntfs-3g defaults 0 0

HOWEVER, your best bet is probably to wait on Allen or someone to confirm
this before you try to edit it... but in theory you shouldn't have any extra
issues as long as you only edit that one line. ****VIP: before you edit
it, make a backup copy.
use "cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.bak" to do that from the terminal. That way if
anything goes wrong, you can restore the original from a live cd if it comes
to that.
