You are right.

mount -t vfat /dev/hda2 /hd  should mount the D: (FAT32) partition to /hd

(-t vfat = type FAT32)

To see what is on D: (as labelled in DOS or Windows) look at the contents 
of /hd with a file manager or

cd /hd
ls -l

(ls -l gives a detailed list of the files and directories in the partition 
mounted to /hd)
