After following a thread to mount my /home directory in a bigger partition. I cannot start my Linux Mint. I think my problem is a spelling mistake in my fstab. Quoted the /home drive in partition sdb5 and not sda5 the correct partition. Any suggestions on how to edit the fstab to correct this error. Thanks
As an aside I created the partition by. stealimg it from Windows 7. I find LInux Mint to be a much better operating system and am gradually transferring files there to reduce and remove dependancy on Windows.
