If I understand correctly the windows partition will be mounted in
/mnt/mnt/windows (it will mount it in the same position as it would have
been if you were booted straight from the hdd. )  If not typing 

mount -t vfat /dev/hdxx /mnt/mnt/windows  

where xx is the driveletter and partition number of your windows
partition.  The reason you can't copy to /mnt without leaving linux is
because the / directory of your HDD is mounted there.
