Hi!
From yesterday randomly the filesystem of my Trisquel installation becomes read-only until a new reboot. I want to fix that... I really need your help, but I can give some informations (perhaps useful):
1)I recently changed size at the partition, creating another one with 50 GB of the primary. I did that with gparted on live usb Trisquel
2)I recently changed /etc/fstab adding the line
"UUID=454E045C147EC335 /media/MoYan ntfs auto,rw,exec,users,dmask=000,fmask=111,nls=utf8 0 0"
for automatically mount the partition created in 1)
3)When I switch on it ask me something like that: "There is an error: F for trying to fix it, I to ignore, E to not mount, M to manual solution to the problem". I tried F and I, without any success...

I don't know if you need the pastebin of fstab or other stuff...
Please reply, cause I really don't know what to do and I don't want to format another time the partition... =(

Thank you all!

Try to remove/change some mount options (from the Live USB). I would start with removing those:
dmask=000,fmask=111,nls=utf8

You can test with:
$ mount /media/MoYan

I removed that stuff, however it asked me another time to fix the errors while booting.
I put on pastebin my actual fstab:

I bet there's something wrong with your fstab line as it appears to be complaining that it cannot mount something.

Is there supposed to be a comma between 'ntfs' and 'auto' ?

No, I'm sorry:
sebelius, you don't need a comma, cause the line has to be like that, as said at the top of fstab: [file system] [mount point] [type] [options] [dump] [pass].
ntfs is the type, auto is an option, you put comma between options...

leny2010: it cannot be that because I have no Windows 8 and that partition has no OS, is only for storing data. The filesystem is ntfs cause Windows don't read ext4 and I need to store files of more than 4GB, so I needed for the compatibility to use the ntfs filesystem.

Check your UUID on the last line.
You can get it by using:
sudo blkid

It's correct... I've already checked it

Perhaps the problem is not about fstab, I talked of it cause I changed it.. It may be the cause, not it must be.

What about trying "defaults" (without the quotes) in the fourth field?

I continue to have that stupid problem... I think is not a problem of fstab... Can it be caused by the reallocation of space of the OS?
