I don't have a ton of good advice, but I do think it might not be a good idea to go delete the mount points if there is even a chance that they're still mounted. No need to wipe all your data, on top of everything.
You might try doing a regular umount as root. It has a -f switch to force NFS unmounts, it might work with samba. Nate Ross Day wrote: >> Nothing seemed to help so I killed my smbmounts.
