hmm... this doesn't make sense, try this:
fdisk -l
The output should be something decipherable, and will tell you where your
fat and vfat partitions are in the scheme.

if the second partition on the first IDE hard drive is an 'extended'
partition , it will contain 'logical' partitions, these logical partitions
are numbered 5 and up, and should show up in the output of 'fdisk -l'.
The 'extended' partitions do not have filesystems on them (cannot be
mounted), but the 'logical' partitions inside them may.
after the fdisk -l, you might find that 'mount -t vfat /dev/hda5 /win_e'
works for you.
