Your fstab says that the partition should have (is expected to have) a file system of type reiserfs, have You created that? If not, run the command
Code:
mkreiserfs /dev/hda11
But You must be sure that it is the correct partition, if You run that command on another partition You may erase everything on it. Just wanted to tell You to be careful
After that You may mount it with
mount /back
or
mount /dev/hda11
or
mount /dev/hda11 /back
or even
mount -t reiserfs /dev/hda11 /back
and even more variants
The entry in fstab actually makes sure that it will be mounted every time Your system boot (thats when a mount -a will be done, usually), but right now it also helps specify the details, that explains why for example mount /dev/hda11 and mount /back work equally well.

halmount
halmount(1) User Commands halmount(1)NAME
halmount - mount and umount filesystems via hal
SYNOPSIS
halmount [OPTIONS]... <device|label> [mountpoint]
halmount -u [OPTIONS]... <device|label|mountpoint>
halmount -e [OPTIONS]... <device|label|mountpoint>
DESCRIPTION
halmount can mount and umount filesystems via hal. Hotpluggable devices and media such as USB sticks and CD-ROMs are typically not entered
into /etc/fstab and are therefore not mountable by normal users via the mount(8) command. Instead hal provides methods to mount and umount
such devices.
Additionally it's also possible to eject devices. For devices like USB sticks eject means the device cannot be mounted again until the
stick is re-plugged, ie a "save remove" feature.
OPTIONS -t TYPE
specify the file system type to use
-o OPTIONS
specify mount options
-v verbose listing of devices
-u umount specified device
-e umount and eject specified device
-a perform requested mount/umount/eject operation all available devices
--listudi
list UDIs of devices, useful for debugging
EXAMPLES
halmount
list all mountable devices known to hal
halmount /dev/hdc
mount device hdc on default mount point (/media/volumelabel)
halmount /dev/hdc cdrom
mount device hdc on /media/cdrom
halmount -u "Holiday Pictures"
umount device that has the label "Holiday Pictures"
