mount -t filesystem-type something somewhere

`filesystem-type' depends on your partition. `something' is the
partition, here /dev/hda1 or /dev/hda5. `somewhere' is the mount point
-- the place where you go to access the files once the partition is
mounted. E.g.,

# mount -t vfat /dev/hda5 /mnt/d

Once the above command is run, you can

$ cd /mnt/d
$ ls

and hopefully you'll see your files.
