Thanks thomas and liam.
I was just hoping that there was a simple command or something that
could scan the system and recreate an fstab file.
I think it was while making a backup that I fouled things up.
It's no matter anyway as it was on my messing about machine which I had
just done a clean install on. I think it was making a backup that I
mucked up, as I was going to add network drives to it.
It'll be a good exercise anyway.
