If you have a FAT16 Win95 partition, all you have to do is add the
following line to your fstab

/dev/hda??      /mnt/???        vfat    defaults 0 0

where /dev/hda?? is the your Windows partition
and /mnt/??? is where you want in mounted in Linux (I use /mnt/msdos)

If vfat causes problems for you, try using msdos or umsdos (although
I've had problems trying to mount umsdos in fstab, and had to do it in
rc.local...)
