Krishnaprasad: How should that entry appear? I tried one with "/dev/sdb1 /media/usbfixedhd ext3 defaults 0 0" But that didn't worked when I rebooted it. Of course /media/usbfixedhd likely didn't exist since the shutdown would have removed it on dismount.

By default root file system will be there in /etc/fstab. Similarly do it for the new ext3 partition.
