Couple of options

1) open a terminal window and enter the command

mount

used by itself, the mount command displays the mounted drives, removable media, and shares.

2) in a terminal window, cat the mtab file

cat /etc/mtab

3) to see what should be mounted during boot, in a terminal window, cat the fstab

cat /etc/fstab


Final note: the contents of the /mnt directory are typically simple mount points for removable media (cd, usb, floppy, etc). The listing in /mnt does not necessarily list all of the devices that have been mounted on the system since other mount points are common. http://www.bellevuelinux.org/mounting.html
