Use the manual pages entry for mount "man mount" or the web copy http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/precise/en/man8/mount.8.html

The general format is
mount -t type device dir

You have to be aware that in almost all cases you need administrative rights, so it will be
sudo mount -t type device dir

Please provide more details about what problems with the command you have.

Can you help with this problem?
