It was formated NTFS.
I reformatted ext3.

Made an fstab entry -> /dev/sdc /home/me/REPOSITORY ext3 defaults 1 1

Now my machine does not boot properly.

It fails a filesystem check and I get the error "fsck.exts:: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/sdc1"

I am then prompted for pass word for repair, but I am unsure as to how to proceed. What do I do now.... I entered the root password, and tried to edit /etc/fstab to remove the above mentioned entry, but /etc/fstab is read only and i can't save the changes.

Yow that went south.

You need to unmount your normal filesystem and fsck it.  Use

mount

to find your normal filesystem mountpoint, it should be /mnt/sysimage. Then do, eg

umount /mount/sysimage
fsck /dev/sdXX

where sdXX is the drive and partition your main filesystem lives on.
