You should never, under any circumstances edit /etc/mtab.  It's a list 
of what partitions are currently mounted, where and with what options, 
not a configuration file.  The file to edit if you want to change how 
things get mounted is, of course, /etc/fstab.  I would have replied to 
the OP with this, but for some reason the problem managed to slip under 
my radar until just now.
