Well, I thought so too. So I booted to the Universal CD. Then I did
  mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/gentoo

Then I did cd /mnt/gentoo and did a ls

all I see is boot and lost+found

you sure /dev/hda3 is your correct partition?

Did I make a bigger mess than I thought?

I made a mistake while creating my fstab on a new install, and I can't boot. If I use my Universal CD to boot up, what command(s) will I have
to run to get access to the fstab to fix it? (I'm assuming I have to
re-mount & chroot but I don't know specifically what to do). Thanks!

You only need to mount your root partition to /mnt/gentoo and then
execute nano /mnt/gentoo/etc/fstab -w. You can change nano to another
editor if you like.
