Hello.
I am having an issue when mounting a drive at boot. I have edited my fstab to include three partitions that I want automatically mounted, and they appear to mount fine. However, I notice that when booting I see an error booting the final partition, displaying an ugly error and then a ntfs-3g how-to.
While the other two boot fine, there is nothing I can see that is wrong with the partition, and it mounts when I looked for it--I don't have to do anything. Really, there is no problem except that little error at boot, and it is rather displeasing for me to have (because it would be such a pretty boot sequence, otherwise!).
Is there a common reason this might occur, and yet still mount properly? I have included my fstab configuration file, although I believe it to be correct. Please note that I all the drives I am speaking of are NTFS, and that is at the final partition, /dev/sdc1, that boots. And again, everything functions correctly other than the error, there are no hiccups otherwise when browsing the partition.
I did not feel this was appropriate for any other section, but I am a bit of a beginner at configuring Arch, so please excuse me if this is, in fact, a common error.

FWIW, your /etc/fstab looks great to me. How are the drives connected (SATA, USB, ...)?

Okay so it doesn't seem to be mounting properly now at all, though I can use "sudo mount -a" and it fixes everything. Is there something I'm overlooking here?

Hello epsilon!
In last case, you can take it to your .xinitrc or rc.local, but what's the related output of syslog, when it fails?
