Fix it by restoring fstab. I can't tell you exactly how, since its contents
depend on the specifics of your system ... but basically it provides
information on what devices are to be mounted at boot and where their mount
point are (this is a bit simplified; read the man page for full details on
the other things that fstab does).
You want one entry for each volume (including swap), and their general form is
/dev/hda1 / ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/hda2 /usr ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/hda3 none swap sw 0 0
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
I don't know, though, why this would cause X to fail. If fixing fstab
doesn't solve the X problem, you may want to post again about it.

With the "mount" command. Something like the following (done as root, with a
disk that has a filesystem on it in the drive):
mount /dev/fd0 /floppy
(assuming, of course, that the mount point /floppy exists).
