How to mount fat16 partition

Hello,

I am trying to mount a FAT16 and FAT32 partition on an already installed Redhat system.

I have tried to edit the fstab and mtab, and to put in the data I got from fdisk, but it just says cannot find it.

The information given by fdisk on /dev/hda is:
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 100 201568 6 FAT16
/dev/hda2 101 658 1124928 5 Extended
/dev/hda5 626 658 66496 82 Linux Swap
/dev/hda6 101 625 1058337 83 Linux

my /etc/fstab contains:
LABEL=/ / ext2 defaults 1 1
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,owner 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts gid=5,mode=620 0 0
/dev/hda5 swap swap defaults 0 0
/dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,owner,kudzu,ro 0 0

my /etc/mtab contains:
/dev/hda6 / ext2 rw 0 0
none /proc proc rw 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0
automount(pid539) /misc autofs rw,fd=5,pgrp=539,minproto=2,maxproto=3 0 0

I have been trying to figure out the changes myself but this is about the only subject I cannot locate *any* info on. This computer only has a FAT16 partition, but I also have another one that has a FAT32 partition that I would like to access, I poresume the methods are the same....

Cheers in advance
