[SOLVED] Arch Not Launching after installing Windows on other drive

I had to install Windows 10 for School reasons on another HDD that I didn't have anything important on which is working when I boot on that drive, but now if I go into grub to launch my arch installation it tells me

[FAILED] Failed to mount /home/Leon/internal 

(the drive i installed Windows on) and

[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Local File Systems

and I get thrown into emergency mode. So, how do I fix that so I can boot into arch again, while I have seen other threads about similar issues I am kind of afraid to mess something up resulting in screwing up my drive.

Comment the entry in your fstab, you can do this offline (ie. boot the install iso or any live distro, mount the root partition and edit the field) if you fail to access it from the emergency shell (or are uncomfortable w/ vim)
