But I'm over the first hump. Now I'm playing with /dev/fd1 and /dev/floppy-fd1 (and why is it trying to read a superblock when I try to mount it, when I've said -t msdos? Oh, well, onward in the fight.)

I think mount uses the same error string (possibly from ERRNO) whenever it can't find the appropriate file system structure on a device. Thus, you get "Unable to read superblock" even when mount -t msdos is looking for a FAT and FAT root directory.
