Once the system is up and running, you do something like

        mount -t msdos /dev/hda1 /mnt/msdos

where the "something like" means:

        -t may be msdos or vfat [can't tell from what you sent]
        replace hda1 with the right partition identifier
        the mount point /mnt/msdos needs to be created (with mkdir)
                before it can be used

... and your kernel has to have support, either compiled in or as a module,
for the filesystem type (msdos, vfat) that the partition is.
