Yes, a standard install should have a module in 
/lib/modules/kernel_version_number/fs/vfat.o if you are running Kerneld then
it should get loaded automaticly, so with an entry in /etc/fstab as;

/dev/hda1       /dos            vfat            defaults        0 0

1) i am using /dev/hda1 as you mentioned /dev/hda
2) you must create a directory /dos to use the above example.

If Kerneld is not running you will need to load the modules with 'modprobe
vfat'
