You could easily put a symbolic link to it in your Home or Desktop
directory.  You can do this with:
ln -s /mnt/mac /home/<USERNAME>/mac
or 
ln -s /mnt/mac /home/<USERNAME>/Desktop/mac

Or better yet, unless you need the mount point to be in /mnt/, just
create an empty directory in your Home or Desktop directory, and
specify that as the mount point in /etc/fstab.  In other words,
change:
/dev/hda5     /mnt/mac         hfsplus        defaults      0             0
to:
/dev/hda5     /home/<Your Username>/mac         hfsplus       
defaults      0             0

Hope it helps.
