Two.  First, check to see if it's listed in /etc/fstab and second, find
out if the "file" exists.

The file (/dev/fedora_localhost-live/home) does exist. /etc/fstab
contains:

$ grep live /etc/fstab
/dev/mapper/fedora_localhost--live-root         /                       ext4    
defaults        1 1
/dev/mapper/fedora_localhost--live-swap         none                    swap    
defaults        0 0

That would imply I should add /dev/fedora_localhost-live/home to
/etc/fstab, but it already contains:

$ grep home /etc/fstab
UUID=c1df25d9-4c89-43a5-886d-3bbbf8513b22       /home                   ext4    
defaults        0 0

so I'm not clear on the logic of all this.

I don't know why it's trying to mount that partition at boot, but I do know a workaround. First, create a mountpoint, such as /mnt/foo. Then, add a line to /etc/fstab, mounting the partition there, but instead of using the default options, use noauto users. This will keep it from mounting at boot, but if you want to look at what's there, you can mount it as an ordinary user. HTH, HAND.
