if you change only in fstab that means your configuration is remaing missing. you must apply same change in your boot file (grub.conf or elilo.conf or lilo.conf or others..) for rootfs mount in booting process.because kernel must mount as rootfs with appropriate labeled with correct root device.

if you dont help this information then you can write the output the boot conf and fstab file in here..

SYSTEMD-FSTAB-GENERATOR(8)				      systemd-fstab-generator					SYSTEMD-FSTAB-GENERATOR(8)

NAME
systemd-fstab-generator - Unit generator for /etc/fstab SYNOPSIS
/usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-fstab-generator DESCRIPTION
systemd-fstab-generator is a generator that translates /etc/fstab (see fstab(5) for details) into native systemd units early at boot and when configuration of the system manager is reloaded. This will instantiate mount and swap units as necessary. The <term>passno</term> field is treated like a simlpe boolean, and the ordering information is discarded. However, the root filesystem is checked before all the other filesystems. See systemd.mount(5) and systemd.swap(5) for more information about special /etc/fstab mount options this generator understands. systemd-fstab-generator implements the generator specification[1]. KERNEL COMMAND LINE
systemd-fstab-generator understands the following kernel command line parameters: fstab=, rd.fstab= Takes a boolean argument. Defaults to "yes". If "no", causes the generator to ignore any mounts or swaps configured in /etc/fstab. rd.fstab= is honored only by initial RAM disk (initrd) while fstab= is honored by both the main system and the initrd. SEE ALSO
