fstab is a static file, so it doesn't change between mounts. Your fstab file
doesn't have an entry for sda1 (your internal NTFS drive). This is a
configuration problem, not a bug - if you chose manual partitioning during
install then I believe it will not set this partition in fstab unless you told
it to.
You can add the correct line to fstab doing the following (we will use the
UUID):
gksudo gedit /etc/fstab
add the line:
UUID=C64048F24048EB2F /media/windows ntfs-3g defaults,locale=en_US.utf8
0 0
where /media/windows is the mount point and en_US.utf8 is your own
locale. You can choose a different mount point name if you'd like. Save
and close, then make the mount point and mount all:
sudo mkdir /media/windows
sudo mount -a
You should now have access to the drive and it will automount on boot.
