When the computer boots up I get to the line:

modprobe: cant locate module /dev/BOOT
fsck.ext2: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/BOOT
/dev/BOOT
The superblock could not be read or does not d3scribe a correct ext2
filesyste. If the device is valid and it really conftains and ext2 filesystem, then the superblock is corrupt....

Give root password for maintenance

Help!

You have to change your /etc/fstab


it is trying to mount
Code:
/dev/BOOT


When it should be trying to mount something like:
Code:
/dev/hda5
