that the mount point does not contain any files or directories for
the newly created pool to be mounted. If the mountpoint has any
files created the mount will fail. This is possible if
inadvertantly files were created before filesystem was mounted, at
a later point if you issue "zfs mount -a" the command will
fail.</para>
