Assuming that your windows partition is on /dev/hda1 :
  
  # mkdir /mnt/win98
  # mount -t vfat /dev/hda1 /mnt/win98

You may also want to add a line to your /etc/fstab to this effect:

  /dev/hda1	/mnt/win98	vfat	noauto,user 0 0

You can then mount the partition by typing:

  $ mount /mnt/win98

Hope this helps.
