The output of 
  fdisk -l 
(it L not one) will list all partitions on all disks. 

For temporary mount point you may create subdirectories in /mnt like:
  mkdir /mnt/hdb1
  mkdir /mnt/hdb2
etc, for the rest listed in output of fdisk. 
They have to exist prior to attempt to use mount. 

The command line that works fine with unknown filesystem on target partion 
would be:
  mount -t auto /dev/hdb1 /mnt/hdb1 
than look with 
  mount
without arguments what is discovered. 

Example:  
# linux:~ # mkdir /mnt/hdb7
# linux:~ # mount -t auto /dev/hdb7  /mnt/hdb7
# linux:~ # mount
....
/dev/hdb7 on /mnt/hdb7 type reiserfs (rw)
