msdos is correct. Here's mine:

$ cat /etc/fstab
# See the fstab(5) manual page for important information on automatic mounts
# of network filesystems before modifying this file.
#
# Device                Mountpoint      FStype  Options         Dump

/dev/ad0s1a             /               ufs     rw              1       1
/dev/acd0c              /cdrom          cd9660  ro,noauto       0       0
/dev/ad3s1              /mp3            msdos   rw              1       2
proc                    /proc           procfs  rw              0       0

The drive called 'mp3' was mounted in a Windows box. Rather
than mess about with 40 gig of ripped CDs, I just put it straight
into this box and mounted it as shown.
