Error on boot: Dependency failed for /mnt

When I launch EndeavorOS, it tries to start, gets past grub, and then gives the error: Dependency failed for File System. It was working before, but I think the issue was caused by me burning an ISO to a USB stick.

The error in question:

This is the Fstab:

The entry in your fstab for what you are trying to mount at /mnt looks off.

You would need to correct that. Both the UUID and the mountpoint.

And how would I correct it?

what should it be?

Easiest done from a live session.

Boot up your live usb. Open a terminal. Run lsblk to identify your system partition and also the UUID of the partition you want to mount via fstab.

Mount your system partition, for example: sudo mount /dev/blablabla /mnt (replace blablabla with correct partition).

Then: sudo nano /mnt/etc/fstab

Edit the file to correct the UUID for the partition you wnat to mount and also the malformed mountpoint.

i’m confused on what that last part means

Delete the line that points to /mnt (the last line in fstab).

error: directory ‘/mnt/etc’ does not exist

How did you get this photograph?
If you were there after into emergency mode (first photo), then run this command in the commandline:

sed -i '/nvme0n1p2/d' /etc/fstab

If no error messages, then reboot.

i already re-installed EnOS, sorry.
