This is from memory so I may be wrong, but I believe you should do this:
first make a mount point (I use /mnt to hide all non-Linux mounts) like so:
# mkdir /mnt/ntfs
Replace the string "ntfs" with anything you like. Eg. I use /mnt/dosc for
the dos/windows partition. Then type:
# mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/ntfs
Later on you could try to modify /etc/fstab (IIRC: man fstab) and include
the mount there to let it mount either automatically or with a simple:
# mount /mnt/ntfs
