   You need to boot from a Live CD.  It doesn't have to be Mageia, but you can   
   use the Rescue function on the Mageia DVD.  It is a bit clunky.  Then your   
   Mageia partitions are not busy.   
      
   Then mount the partition containing /etc/fstab to a mount point somewhere.   
   A mount point is just any empty directory.  I prefer the /mnt of the liveCD.   
   (or /media/floppy!)   
      
   Then you can edit fstab to be just how you want it.  You can use /dev/sda??   
   format for the partitions for now, then use diskdrake to substitute their   
   UUIDs later.  But watch that both your usual system and the live system   
   agree on which drive is /dev/sda.
