the whole error message is: systemd-fstab-generator failed to create mount unit
five /run/systemd/generator/-.mount   as it already exit possible duplicate
entry in /etc/fstab? I've enclosed my fstab file:

# <file system> <mount point>   <type>  <options>       <dump>  <pass>
proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0

/dev/sr0       /media/cdrom0   udf,iso9660 user,noauto     0       0


if systemd-fstab-generator is now making its own fstab file, should we delete
our old one?

I believe this error message is correct. All HDDs in your fstab files are 
mounted on '/'. 

The 3 disks should be mounted on different points.

Neither. From systemd-fstab-generator man page: "systemd-fstab-generator is a 
generator that translates /etc/fstab (see fstab(5) for details) into native 
systemd units"

You must fix you fstab file. 

All the best
