I hate having to touch command lines or config files.
Your choice obviously. As my mother used to say, there's a reason they make more than one flavor of ice cream.

Part of the problem with Disks-for-fstab is that the GUI is illusory. Yeah, you can use a mouse, but the part which really matters is the text you put in the various boxes. That text is the same code you would use if editing fstab manually. Putting a pretty wrapper on it doesn't make the substance any easier. The developers made some one-size-fits-most guesses for the defaults; sometimes they work, sometimes not.

Anyhoo, you've tried. If Linux doesn't work for you, move on. If you want to play with it on the side, consider installing a virtual machine in VirtualBox (an app you can install in Windows).
