linux is a meme and should only be used for servers

I bet you fucked up the fstab syntax and it can't parse the file.

ur so fucking shit honestly

i copied everything but uuid and fs from the premade root partition

This

Anyway op you shit for brains cunt lip get a live disk and fix your fstab

saged, reported, A- shitpost

And mount point... right?

EFFECTIVE EVANGELISM

And checked the mount options are supported by the file system... right?

MOPPING UP

fug :D

pic related

ext4 on /
ext3 on 2nd disk..

Source?

Just post the fstab already so we can point out how stupid you are.

Why would you use ext3?

is dis troll bait

i cant get it because my system is bricked fucko
what do you mean?

KDE doesn't have this problem

You don't have a Live whatever lying around? How bad can you be?

Select recovery mode on grub, mount the root partition manually, fix fstab and reboot

no i overwrote it with a debian netinstall

you can get a lot of funny quotes from this
techrights.org/wp-content/uploads/2008/08/comes-3096.pdf

ext3 is 15 years old

That's the most retarded pic I've ever seen.
Underageb& like yourself do not belong on this site.

my grub doesnt have that option
and?

Why would you use the outdated EXT3 over EXT4, dickwad.

good goyim only use the latest products!

It's objectively better.

>unix and derivatives are wolfs
Thats wrong user, wolfs work, Unix and derivatives don't.

it uses half your disk space for journals
thats hardly better

macOS doesn't have this problem.

It uses 128mb. EXT3 is a journaling file system too.

>my grub doesnt have that option

Thats odd. What options does it have?

OSX has vifs.
Linux cucks will justify don't having it.

Sure, blame everything other than yourself. Fucking retard

>Install Debian

First mistake

>Be retarded

Second mistake

>Get angry and get a little white Linux rage boner and come to Sup Forums and complain instead of figuring out the problem

Third mistake.

You are not cut out for Linux OP. Stick to Windows. I'd guess that OSX is even too hard for you.

shut the fuck up kid
i can only press E to edit how it loads and i must do that everytime to add 'nomodeset' otherwise i get a black screen forever

The Debian meme ladies and gentlemen

Add 'single' to the end of the line.

I'll take hot wolf dick.

You could have just used the disks GUI in the system settings for GNOME

>using geenoem

>muh tiling wm
>muh rootkit who displays windows

You can thank Poettering and his masterpiece systemd for deciding to halt boot whenever it can't mount something.

>muh sysvinit
>muh minimalism

i don't want the D

I love all the apologism and victim-blaming in this thread.

You're all missing the point. OP's badness is irrelevant. There's no good reason why bad fstab syntax should brick the system, requiring a live disc or the removal of the offending drive to fix. The questions you all should be asking are:

1) Why is auto-mounting on boot not the default behavior? It's plugged directly into the motherboard via SATA. Why would you not want its default behavior to be to mount unless otherwise specified?

2) Why the flying fuck is the system so fragile that a misstep in editing your mount settings causes a brick? Why is it incapable of ignoring malformed syntax and proceeding with boot, leaving the drive in question unmounted? It's not even the system drive.

Seriously, blaming Linux is perfectly valid in this situation. The ability to fail gracefully is an important part of any computer software.

>I can't partition correctly so linux sucks

>Debian
>Not Gentoo
>Not OP's fault
>OP wasn't trying to install Gentoo

I may have a solution...

it never happened, stop samefagging

>requering a live cd
oh wow, using a live cd does sound like the hardest thing in the world

I'm not him, but something similar happened to me in the past.

And the point isn't that it's hard, chucklehead. The point is that it shouldn't be necessary. What if you had to hand-crank your computer to get it to boot? It wouldn't be hard, so what's the problem?

The problem is that it's dumb, archaic, and an unnecessary obstacle to actual productive computing.

Normie faggots like you people blame the entire Linux topology because of your fucked up installation. You don't see everyone who uses linux having your problems. Blame your own incompetence.

The point is that you shouldn't mess with options in Linux that you're not familiar with; copying everything you read online is the single most common mistake.

>I'm not him

It's still an unnecessary layer of user-hostility that'll keep Linux on the fringes of end-user computing forever. Enjoy your irrelevance, you neckbearded faggots.

No, really, I'm not him. Am I typing like him? No. Because I'm not him. And the real point is that, no matter how bad you fuck up the mounting options for your second drive, it shouldn't ever render your system unbootable. That's terrible design. Graceful failure is key.

>being so fucking stupid you can't configure fstab

Go back to your propietary OS of choice. Linux is only for people with a 3-digit IQ.

>Enjoy your irrelevance

Enjoy your cuckhold microcuck status, keep wearing that chastity belt and being a corporate kissbutt

>my OS is better because it's unnecessarily complicated, and requires manual configuration of functions that every other modern OS handles automatically

>corporate kissbutt
>cuck cuck cuck

This board is for ages 18+, son.

OP is making shit up, fucking up the fastab wouldn't cause debian to not boot.

>Underageb& like yourself do not belong on this site.
The only underage are the ones constantly calling for underage b&s :-P

>This board is for ages 18+

Take your own advice. Let me know when you finish highschool

Unlike the esteemed Mr. Fry, I am not a time traveler. I graduated ten years ago.

Dude don't fuck around with the "internals" of a Linux install if you can't figure out how to get into your shit when it's "bricked." I highly doubt your system is actually bricked though, you just can't get it to boot into your OS, does your BIOS still work? Ubuntu is great and easy. If you want to learn Linux do it in a VM or be prepared to reinstall a shit ton.

got a job yet? your own apartment?
>or your own bedroom

And yet you still have no relevance in any technological field. So you come onto board like Sup Forums trying to fit in and acting like you know shit just to vent out your empty and pathetic attempt at being an 'IT Pro'

Stop trying so hard please.

You have no idea who I am. And I think you're still assuming I'm OP (I'm not). And, regardless of any of that, there is absolutely no reason for Linux to complicate itself in this specific way. It's just bad design. Quit apologizing for bad design.

>Implying I'm assuming you're OP
>You have no idea who I am

Oh yes, please continue big boy

>Unix and derivatives are wolfs
First off, Pajeet, the plural of "wolf" is "wolves." Second, that pic doesn't say "Unix and derivatives" anywhere, otherwise it would be redundant to have an "OS X" category

halting boot because of a mounting issue is super retarded, user
