mount -t msdos /dev/fd0 /mnt

The disk will end up under /mnt.  BEFORE EJECTING THE FLOPPY DO

umount /mnt

OR YOUR SYSTEM WILL CRASH.  TRUST ME.  ;-)

Although it depends on your system setup somewhat, this should work:

mount -t msdos /dev/wd0s1c /mnt

Again it'll show up under /mnt.  Use

umount /mnt

when done.
