unable to mount 2nd FAT16 partition



I have no problem mounting my initial FAT16 partition,
but am unable to mount the 2nd one. The 2nd one was added
recently following the installation of Windows95 and Debian
Linux (in that order).

I use this to mount:

	mount -t msdos /dev/hda3 /mnt

This is what I get back:

mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/hda3,
       or too many mounted file systems

Below is my partitioning:

   Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *         1        69    278176+   6  FAT16
/dev/hda2           124       250    512064   39  Unknown
/dev/hda3            70       123    217728    6  FAT16
/dev/hda4           251       782   2145024    5  Extended
/dev/hda5           251       266     64480+  82  Linux swap
/dev/hda6           267       782   2080480+  83  Linux

What am I doing wrong?

The "unknown" partition is a Plan 9 one. Also, when in
Windows I am able to access the second partition.
