Failing to mount drive causing failure to boot.

I attempted to automount a secondary drive through KDE Partition Manager, but I neglected to add the "nofail" arguement to the partition. This compounds with the drive being unmountable for some reason. When I rebooted the system, the drive fails to mount, thus foiling the boot process. This is on an HTPC install, so the boot menu is skipped, but I do have a base install of rEFInd on my system. Are there any ways I can fix this without booting a live usb and editing the fstab like that?
Solution
Actually try the following. Get into your bios, select to boot directly into Fedora/Bazzite and press ESC once immediately after and wait. Try boot into your previous image (Ostree: 1). It looks like you can rollback /etc/fstab changes if you boot into a previous image
