[SOLVED] Fresh Install: Forgot to genfstab. What to do?

I just booted into a fresh install, but as I was tired last morning, I forgot to generate an fstab file. So there's nothing in /etc/fstab.

How can I fix this?

EDIT: I figured out how to do this. I went back to the USB medium

lsblk -f #to check and see where your drives are
mount /dev/sda2
mount --mkdir /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot/efi
genfstab -U /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab

arch-chroot /mnt

nano or vim to see if /etc/fstab has been generated
