I think your problem is in your fstab file , try to fix the problem in it.
Backup your fstab :
sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.backup
Add this line at the end your fstab :
gksu gedit /etc/fstab
add this line at the end :
devpts /dev/pts devpts rw 0 0
I don't have that in my system. Why you think he needs it?

I agree with Braiam, messing around with fstab (and not even suggesting to backup it before) is really dangerous.
