 Thanks Free,

 Adding smbfs removes the "supoerblock" error and allows me to mount
 windows shares.

 One thing confuses me: as far as I can tell, this should not be necessary
 because cifs support should be in the kernel.  In fact smbfs will be
 deprecated soon.

 The OP was reporting that mounts were working OK in 1.3.0 but broken in
 1.4.0 .  Was smbfs dropped because it is now in the kernel?  Is there some
 other problem which is being worked-around by installing smbfs?

 By the way, this Ubuntu bug is very similar to what I was seeing, which
 would suggest a problem in their kernel (2.6.20 for Feisty)

 I'm concerned to "hijack" this ticket to solve my immediate problem, but
 this may not be the same problem for Dennis?
