Yes, I screwed up trying to install a 4TB external hard drive to my Ubuntu 16.04 LTS system.



I tried mounting it with Disks utility and did something wrong. It will not boot into Ubuntu and get the emergency mode. Running the systemctl journal I can see the line:



mnt-sdc.mount: Mount process exited, code=exited status=32
Failed to mount /mnt/sdc
Dependency failed for Local File Systems.


The External hard drive is disconnected from the system and unmounted.



How do I erase this /dev/sdc line from my system to make it work again?

  • Where did you add "the line /dev/sdc" in the first place? In general you can boot in recovery mode or using a live system (from USB or DVD) to edit system configuration files of otherwise unbootable systems.

  • You can mount the drive with your Ubuntu installation in the just like you did with the external drive (using Gnome Disks or any other method you like). Then open a file manager, browse to the aforementioned file, open it and copy and paste it into your question.
