Wouldn't know myself, it would probably help if you told us what's in /etc/fstab and what's in your boot loader configuration file. (For example, for grub, it's /boot/grub/grub.conf)

Well I cant do that because i cant get it to pass the boot stage. It did say after about 5 hours 'No Bootable Medium found' 'attempting to mount new devices'
