Just something i came across recently. I had a space in the filesystem mount point, something like "New Volume" which was a windows filesystem detected and auto-mounted by ubuntu.
So how do you add this to fstab? Lookup on the fstab man page says:
The second field (fs_file).
This field describes the mount point for the filesystem. For swap partitions, this field should be specified as `none'. If the name of the mount point
contains spaces these can be escaped as `\040'.
Ex:
/dev/sda5 /media/New\040Volume ntfs defaults 0 2
