There should be a line return after "0 0". It seems your fstab is broken.
In fact, "/dev" should always be preceded by a line return.
Try to fix it in /etc/fstab and see new error message.

Sorry, this is beyond my understanding of Ubuntu. As you can see I do not know how to fix /etc/fstab Thank You for any more help Michael

Problem solved.

The problem is less to solve such issue than to understand how such issue occurred.
Your file was corrupted, and if you didn't edit it manually, that means a software did it.
Did you have problem immediately after install, or after some times ?

Immediately after the install. I agree with your first sentence 100%. I used
Ubuntu Documentation on how to install second hdd. I went line by line. I
did not edit, unless it was on that page.

And question 22477 in Launchpad Thanks again

Avoid to replay with previous message. It makes Launchpad unreadable.
