I was talking about the fourth field, "fs_mntops". You currently have
"defaults" listed, but there are other options.
"defaults" should be ok, but possibly need to change it. My suse boxes
have "acl,user_xattr".

Did you say which distro this is? Are you sure mount point is correct?
You did say, you're using Fedora. I happen to have  Fedora on my laptop,
the mount points in my default fstab are for volume groups:
like this:

UUID=aafdafasfxxxsdfsdf /boot ext3 defaults 1 2
/dev/mapper/vg_lela-lv_root / ext4 defaults 1 2
/dev/mapper/vg_lela-lv_swap swap defaults 0 0

So, maybe your mount point is not right?
Can we see your existing fstab?
and the output of
fdisk -l
