and find out what errors you have done editing this line

Ok! thanks heaps, I had about 50 browser tabs open for all different distros just trying to get different shreds of information, I guess i got confused somewhere, i'm kind of stupid so that helps.
I knew i had an error somewhere, but i changed it so many times i still couldn't work it out,
I guess i got confused specifying the correct mount point
I think i have got it worked out now.
I edited the fstab file to show:

root@dead:/home/nothing# mount /home/nothing/blackhole1
Mount is denied because the NTFS volume is already exclusively opened.
The volume may be already mounted, or another software may use it which
could be identified for example by the help of the 'fuser' command.
At this point i discovered i couldn't mount the drive because they had already been mounted in KDE. (changed to run level 4)
So i just unmounted via the the GUI in KDE, then ran the commands again.
