Any help would be appreciated.

TIA!

    @harrys_balzac Is it complaining that /media/ext_EXT4_drive isn’t mounting? If your root drive (/) is mounting and you have access to /etc/fstab, you can just edit that file with the new UUID of the drive.

    ls -lha /dev/disk/by-uuid/  
    

    To see what the new UUID is, (assuming you know the device path).

      I see. I will try that in a little bit. I’ve had to take a break. It’s been a long afternoon and my patience has worn thin.

        You may also want to add the nofail option to prevent that mount from stopping the boot process if it’s not essential.
