Hi Steve,

Thanks for your answer.

I don't know how my system got to this state, I'm just a user.

I simply installed Ubuntu 18.04 as a new system (no dual boot) on my 
laptop computer and then copied relevant parts of my data back onto my 
/home and /etc partition.

I do recall I had an issue because at one point I replaced /etc/fstab 
with the one from my old installation so the system did not boot any longer.

I followed instructions I found somewhere (it might be 
https://askubuntu.com/questions/83172/repairing-the-fstab, but I'm not 
sure) to rebuild it, so maybe that's where things got out of hand...

Let me know if you need any further information.

Best regards,

Steven
